Abstract The complicated nuclear quadrupole hyperfine structure and methyl torsional fine structure in the rotational spectra of N,N-dimethylformamide and N-nitrosodimethylamine have been studied using microwave Fourier transform spectroscopy. It has been found that both molecules are rather similar in terms of their parameters of methyl group internal rotation as well as in terms of their amino nitrogen quadrupole coupling constants.
