Experimental and theoretical insights into the nature of intermolecular interactions and their effect on optical properties of 1-allyl-4-(1-cyano-2-(4-dialkylaminophenyl)vinyl)pyridin-1-ium bromide salts (I and II) are reported. A comparison of optical properties in solution and in the solid-state of the salts (I and II) with their precursors (Ia and IIa) is made. The experimental absorption maxima (λmax) in CHCl3 is at 528â
nm for I and at 542â
nm for II, and a strong bathochromic shift of â¼110â
nm is observed for salts I and II compared with their precursors. The absorption bands in solid-state at â¼627â
nm for I and at â¼615â
nm for II that are assigned to charge transfer (CT) effect. The optical properties and single crystal structural features of I and II are explored by experimental and computational tools. The calculated λmax and the CT are in good agreement with the experimental results. The intermolecular interactions existing in the crystal structures and their energies are quantified for various dimers by PIXEL, QTAIM and DFT approaches.
