A series of cationic monodentate and bidentate iodo(benz)­imidazolium-based halogen bond (XB) donors were employed as catalysts in a Mukaiyama aldol reaction. While 5 mol% of a monodentate variant showed noticeable activity, a <i>syn</i>-preorganized bidentate XB donor provided a strong performance even with 0.5 mol% loading. In contrast to the very active BAr<sup>F</sup><sub>4</sub> salts, PF<sub>6</sub> or OTf salts were either inactive or showed background reaction. Repetition experiments clearly ruled out a potential hidden catalysis by elemental iodine and demonstrated the stability of our catalyst over three consecutive cycles.
