21. The calixarenes were sketched and optimized by using the esff force field of the Biosym package Insight/Discover (Release 95.0, Biosym/MSI, San Diego, CA, 1995), on an IBM RISC 6K workstation. The standard Discover 3 algorithms were selected with their default inputs (0.001 for BFGS Newton energy convergence). Due to the medium size of the molecules, no cutoff was used to compute the non-bond contribution.
22. The spectroscopic studies indicate that these geometrical changes are not related to the nature of the N-alkyl group nor that of the counter anion.

24. This has been studied in details with the zinc complexes (see ref. [16]).
25. 2+ is not and may be related to the electronic structure of the complex. Curiously also, no d-d transition was observed (at least below 1 000 nm) for the phenol adduct which was EPR silent at 120 K. Its EPR signal was observable only below 30 K. Such a behaviour is very unsusual. For a previous related example, see: Schneider J.L., Carrier S.M., Ruggiero C.E., Young V.G.J., Tolman W.B., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 120 (1998) 11408.
26. We are currently working on the identification of the oxidation products.
27. In the case of the other phenol derivatives, a very fast decrease to 0 of the electrolytic current indicates a passivation of the electrode. This might be the result of a polymerisation on the electrode either by catalytic oxidation or by direct oxidation of these phenols. Their oxidation potential are lower than that of the pFPhOH.
