In order to elucidate the underlying mechanisms showing that no dissociated ion radicals are produced even in acetonitrile solution when some complexes of the strong electron donors and acceptors with CT absorption bands in the visible region are photoexcited, the authors have made detailed time-resolved transient absorption spectral measurements and time-resolved fluorescence measurements upon the pyrene-pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA) system in various solvents with picosecond laser spectroscopy. A weakly fluorescent electron-transfer (ET) state with 400-ps lifetime is formed by photoexcitation in benzene solution, while nonfluorescent geminate ion pairs with much shorter lifetimes due to the charge recombination (CR) deactivation are formed in more polar solvents. In all solutions examined, dissociation into free ions from the geminate pair cannot compete with the CR deactivation which becomes faster in more polar solvents due to the decrease of the energy gap between the ion pair and neutral ground state. Moreover, it has been demonstrated that ion pairs produced by encounter between excited pyrene and unexcited PMDA in acetonitrile have more loose structure and show a smaller CR rate constant than those produced by exciting the ground-state complex.
