Abstract
Monte-Carlo simulation of liquid N,N-dimethylformamide was performed. The influence of electrostatic and van der Waals interactions on regul arities of the mutual molecular arrangement was investigated. The spat ial structure of liquid DMF is determined by the type of molecular pac king and steric factors and is close to a random closely packed system of soft spheres. The electrostatic interactions only affect the mutua l orientation of the molecules.
