These papers suggest that B3LYP tends to underestimate the stability of delocalized structures relative to MP2. but that B3LYP gives comparable results to CCSD.

(c) Structure 8 was characterized as a minimum by frequency calculations at the B3LYP/3-21G level (we are aware of the issues associated with using B3LYP/3-21G calculations to characterize the nature of this stationary point, but all attempts to perform frequency calculations on 8 with the larger 6-31G(d) basis set proved computationally unfeasible: we believe, on the basis of our experience with related systems, that B3LYP/6-31G(d) frequency calculations would also show 8 to be a true minimum).

(c) In some cases, using absolute chemical shifts as a measure of local electron density can be a somewhat risky endeavor (See, for example: Bethell, D. In Reactive Intermediates; Jones, M., Jr., Moss, R. A., Eds.; Wiley: New York, 1978; Chapter 4, Vol. 1). but we believe that the risk is minimal in our case due to the fact that we are primarily interested in relative shifts for closely related structures.
