C2 and CN lines at bandheads in the wavelength region 550-680 nm are synthesized for six stars of Omega Centauri in order to derive their carbon and nitrogen abundances. Oxygen abundances are also derived taking into account the molecular associations with C and N compounded molecules, using the appropriate C and N abundances. These determinations have been made for CO-rich and CO-normal stars according to the CO indices measured by Persson et al. (1980). Possible correlations between Al and N, and C and O abundances, as well as the abundances of three rare earth elements are discussed.
