Formation of Anthocyanin Ion-pairs. A Co-Pigmentation Effect

The influence of the addition of ionic salts (NaCI, NaBr, Nal, NaCIO,) on anthocyanin equilibria is studied in this work. The effect of their addition is a colour enhancement through the formation of an ion-pair between the charged flavylium cation and the anion, which displaces the equilibria towar...
