The paramagnetic complex [Yb(DOTA)]鈭?/sup> forms ion pairs in aqueous solution with cationic species such as N-monoalkyl- and N,N鈥?dialkyl-4,4鈥?bipyridinium cations. The magnitude and sign of the induced 1H NMR pseudocontact shift values can be correlated to the electrostatic potential calculated at the MPWLYP/6-311G** level.
