Abstract
The BP86 and PW91 density functionals excellently recover both the ab initio (gas phase) and X-ray experimental (crystal) hydrogen-bond distances and strengths (illustration shows crystal model systems). They are recommended as efficient alternatives to ab initio theory. B3LYP consistently underestimates hydrogen-bond strengths and overestimates hydrogen-bond distances.
