Abstract
⺠Flavylium cation and quinoidal base of six 3-glucoside anthocyanins self-aggregate. ⺠Aggregation decreases the hydration constant Kh and increases the acidity constant Ka. ⺠At low concentration the anthocyanins structure has a small effect on the constants. ⺠The aggregation efficiency is dependent on the anthocyanins substitution pattern.
