We present results of ab initio and DFT calculations of the structure and IR vibrational spectra of the monomer and dimers of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). The calculations were carried out in the B3LYP/cc-pVDZ approximation with subsequent force-field scaling. The calculated characteristics of the vibrational spectra of DMF show satisfactory agreement with experimental values, allowing them to be used in spectral and structural analysis.
