The electronic spectrum of a crystal of NH4V(H2O)6(SO4)2·6H2O is reported and the transition energies interpreted in conjunction with previously reported magnetic susceptibility data using the angular overlap model. Satisfactory agreement with experiment can be obtained only if the π bonding in the plane of each water molecule is significantly weaker than that perpendicular to this plane.
