The performance of the most recent density functionals is assessed for charge-transfer (CT) excitations using comprehensive intra- and intermolecular CT benchmark sets with high-quality reference values. For this comparison, the state-of-the-art range-separated (RS) and long-range-corrected (LC) double hybrid (DH) approaches are selected, and global DH and LC hybrid functionals are also inspected. The correct long-range behavior of the exchange–correlation (XC) energy is extensively studied, and various CT descriptors are compared as well. Our results show that the most robust performance is attained by RS-PBE-P86/SOS-ADC(2), as it is suitable to describe both types of CT excitations with outstanding accuracy. Furthermore, concerning the intramolecular transitions, unexpectedly excellent results are obtained for most of the global DHs, but their limitations are also demonstrated for bimolecular complexes. Despite the outstanding performance of the LC-DH methods for common intramolecular excitations, serious deficiencies are pointed out for intermolecular CT transitions, and the wrong long-range behavior of the XC energy is revealed. The application of LC hybrids to such transitions is not recommended in any respect.
