The aim of this paper is to study the group of elliptic units of a cyclic extension  $L$ of an imaginary quadratic field
$L$ of an imaginary quadratic field  $K$ such that the degree
$K$ such that the degree  $[L:K]$ is a power of an odd prime
$[L:K]$ is a power of an odd prime  $p$. We construct an explicit root of the usual top generator of this group, and we use it to obtain an annihilation result of the
$p$. We construct an explicit root of the usual top generator of this group, and we use it to obtain an annihilation result of the  $p$-Sylow subgroup of the ideal class group of
$p$-Sylow subgroup of the ideal class group of  $L$.
