Abstract
A calix[4]arene modified by grafting N-substituted pyrrole moieties at the upper rim was synthetised. Electropolymerisation of this new cali x[4]arene in a Bu4NClO4 (10(-1) M) - CH3CN solution is described. The obtained film presents a rather stable electroactivity to electrochemi cal cycling but its growing is limited to a few monolayers. It's the f irst example of homopolymerisation of a calix[4]arene modified by elec tropolymerisable monomers.
