Ionic liquids (ILs), organic salts with melting points below 100C, are a new class of materials labelled ”designer solvents” for the exciting prospect of tailoring their physical properties by combining an appropriate choice of cation and anion. Regarding the enormous number of possible ion combinations, reliable prediction concepts based on the chemical nature of the IL compounds are needed. In order to estimate the deviation from a simplified superposition of individual anion- and cation-related properties, one has to understand the complex nature of interactions between IL ions, namely coulombic, hydrogen-bond-type and dispersive forces. In this combined XPS, NMR and DFT study1, interionic interactions in ten different imidazolium-based ILs are examined. In particular, first direct experimental and theoretical evidence for anion-cation charge transfer phenomena in ionic liquids is found. This work was supported by the DFG through SPP1191 ”Ionic Liquids” and the Cluster of Excellence ”Engineering of Advanced Materials”.
