De nouveaux exemples de structures CR non réalisables sont donnés. Ils sont basés sur une construction simple qui consiste à recoller deux structures plongées. Ces exemples semblent améliorer en partie des exemples anciens de Nirenberg, et Jacobowitz et Trèves, mais l’avantage principal en est peut-être le caractère transparent, qui en rend l’étude facile.

We construct examples of non-locally embeddable CR structures. These examples may show some improvement on previous examples by Nirenberg, and Jacobowitz and Trèves. They are based on a simple construction which consists in gluing two embedded structures. And (this is our main point) we believe that these examples are very transparent, therefore easy to work with.
