Sulfur K-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy has been proven to be a powerful tool for investigating the electronic structures of sulfur-containing coordination complexes. The full information content of the spectra can be developed through a combination of experiment and time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT). In this work, the necessary calibration is carried out for a range of contemporary functionals (BP86, PBE, OLYP, OPBE, B3LYP, PBEO, TPSSh) in a scalar relativistic (0(th) order regular approximation, ZORA) DFT framework. It is shown that with recently developed segmented all-electron scalar relativistic (SARC) basis sets one obtains results that are as good as with large, uncontracted basis sets. The errors in the calibrated transition energies are on the order of 0.1 eV. The error in calibrated intensities is slightly larger, but the calculations are still in excellent agreement with experiment. The behavior of full TD-DFT linear response versus the Tamm-Dancoff approximation has been evaluated with the result that two methods are almost indistinguishable. The inclusion of relativistic effects barely changes the results for first row transition metal complexes, however, the contributions become visible for second-row transition metals and reach a maximum (of an similar to 10% change in the calibration parameters) for third row transition metal species. The protocol developed here is similar to 10 times more efficient than the previously employed protocol, which was based on large, uncontracted basis sets. The calibration strategy followed here may be readily extended to other edges.
