— 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.
