However, the correct reproduction of the absorption spectrum is only one part of the picture. In addition, the CT characters must also be described properly, to obtain an accurate characterization of the electronic transitions. To scrutinize this point, an analysis of the TDM was performed for the lowest singlet and triplet excitations in the singlet ground state geometry. The results in Fig. show that LC-BLYP(α = 0, ω = 0.14) provides a reasonable description of the absorption spectrum, even though it incorrectly predicts the ordering of the excited triplet states, placing the MLCT state below the MC state, which does not align with previous CASPT2 computations. In fact, an increase of the short-range exact exchange contribution (α) is required to obtain the correct ordering, which simultaneously worsens the alignment with the experiments. Further, it bears the risk of overcompensation up to the point where the MC states are placed below the MLCT in the singlet absorption spectrum. We obtained the correct ordering for the parameters (α = 0.1, ω = 0.11).
