Abstract The weak decay process of $$\varOmega _c$$ Ω c to $$\varXi $$ Ξ is calculated in the method of QCD light-cone sum rule. The decay width of $$\varOmega _c^0 \rightarrow \varXi ^- l^+ \nu _l$$ Ω c 0 → Ξ - l + ν l and its decay branching ratio are also calculated with the form factors from this work’s calculation. To the twist-6 distribution amplitudes, the form factors $$f_1=0.66\pm 0.02, f_2=-0.76\pm 0.03, g_1=0.06\pm 0.01$$ f 1 = 0.66 ± 0.02 , f 2 = - 0.76 ± 0.03 , g 1 = 0.06 ± 0.01 and $$g_2=-0.44\pm 0.01$$ g 2 = - 0.44 ± 0.01 are given at zero recoil point. The result of the semileptonic decay width of $$\varOmega _c^0 \rightarrow \varXi ^-l^+\nu _l$$ Ω c 0 → Ξ - l + ν l is $$\varGamma =(7.51\pm 0.36)\times 10^{-15}~\mathrm{{GeV}}$$ Γ = ( 7.51 ± 0.36 ) × 10 - 15 GeV , and the prediction of the decay branching ratio $$Br(\varOmega _c^0\rightarrow \varXi ^-l^+\nu _l)=(3.06\pm 0.15)\times 10^{-3}$$ B r ( Ω c 0 → Ξ - l + ν l ) = ( 3.06 ± 0.15 ) × 10 - 3 . These results fit well with other works, and the decay width and branching ratio are improved. This not too small branching ratio gives a good direction to explore this decay channel in the future experiments.
