Structural properties of liquidN,N-dimethylformamide

Monte-Carlo simulation of liquidN,N-dimethylformamide was performed. The influence or electrostatic and van der Waals interactions on regularities of the mutual molecular arrangement was investigated. The spatial structure of liquid DMF is determined by the type of molecular packing and steric factors and is close to a random closely packed system of soft spheres. The electrostatic interactions only affect the mutual orientation of the molecular Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk. Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 1, pp. 21–27, January, 1998.
