Vertical, well-to-well, and adiabatic ionization energies (IEs) and electron affinities (EAs) were calculated for the n=1-10 [n]acenes using a wide range of semiempirical, Hartree-Fock, density functional, and second order Moller-Plesset perturbation theory model chemistries. None of the model chemistries examined were able to accurately predict the IEs or EAs for both short- through mid-length [n]acenes, as well as for extrapolations to the polymeric limit, when compared to available experimental and benchmark theoretical data. Provided a minimal basis set size is employed, basis set effects on predicted IEs and EAs are not significant relative to the choice of model chemistry. The poor IE/EA prediction performance for the parent [n]acenes likely extends to their substituted derivatives and heteroatom substituted analogs. Consequently, caution should be exercised in the application of non-high level calculations for estimating the IE/EA of these important classes of materials
