Abstract

Abstract— Methyl viologen (paraquat, l,l'‐dimethyl‐4, 4'‐bipyridinium dichloride) has been observed to start forming aggregates in methanol at 2.5 times 10 ‐3 M, and in aqueous solutions at about 10 ‐2 M depending on other experimental parameters. The number of molecules per aggregate is 2–3 for concentrations < 0.1 M.
