Metal complexes of octaaza[16]annulenes find increasing interest in recent years as macrocyclic chelates [1,2]. Because of their broad spectrum of applications in chemistry [3].The mentioned compounds have received a great deal of attention in connection with their synthesis. In this project an efficient method for the synthesis of some newOctaaza[16]annuleneswas introduced base on using vinamidiniumsalts. The reaction pathway to synthesis of the new ocaaza [16]annulene derivatives from corresponding vinamidinum salts are shown in Scheme 1
