Eleven new, stable, push-pull systems that feature 4,5-bis[4-(N,N-dimethylamino)phenyl]imidazole and 4,5-dicyanoimidazole as the donor and acceptor moieties and the systematically extended and varied pi-linker were prepared and investigated. Evaluation of the measured UV/Vis spectra, electrochemical data (cyclic voltammetry (CV), rotating-disc voltammetry (RDV), and polarography) and calculated beta and gamma polarizabilities showed efficient charge transfer (CT) in biimidazole-type chromophores. Push-pull system 27, which features a planar thiophene-derived pi-linker, was revealed to be the most efficient chromophore within the studied series. This chromophore possessed the most bathochromically shifted CT band, the lowest electrochemical gap, and highest beta and gamma polarizabilities.
