The formation of non-covalent halogen bonds between a halogenated organic compound and a Lewis base in solution is an active field of research with relevance to various chemical reactions and biological processes. However, the complex spectroscopic behavior of such mixtures and the assignment of (transient) spectroscopic signatures to halogen-bond formation in solution are still rather unexplored.
In this contribution, we focus on benzoimidazolium derivatives serving as halogen bond donors and pyridine derivatives as Lewis base acceptors dissolved in acetonitrile. We identify the impact of additional counterions [OTf]- and [BArF4]- on the fluorescence properties of these donor-acceptor pairs. In addition to ultrafast transient absorption measurements, we perform time-resolved fluorescence streak imaging studies to scrutinize halogen bonding and competing complex formations. Whereas transient absorption indicates an ultrafast reversible halogen-bond cleavage upon illumination, the fluorescence studies additionally reveal new insights concerning the role of complexation with [OTf]- and [BArF4]-.
