Abstract
We have studied the variations of oxygen abundance along the bar for 1 3 spiral barred galaxies with starbursts. The maximum abundance is in the center of the galaxy for seven of them and then decreases along th e bar One galaxy presents two maxima of abundance on either side of th e galactic center.
