The Raman spectra of gaseous dimethylamine-d/sub 0/, -d/sub 3/, and -d/sub 6/ have been recorded between 0 and 4000 cm/sup -1/. The far-infrared spectra have been recorded between 300 and 100 cm/sup -1/. Considerable torsional data are reported and used to characterize the torsional potential function based on a semi-rigid model. The average effective V/sub 3/ for the dimethylamines was found to be 1052 +- 12 cm/sup -1/. The cos--cos coupling term was approximately 15 percent of the effective V/sub 3/, whereas the sine--sine coupling term was of an order of magnitude smaller for (CH/sub 3/)/sub 2/NH and (CD/sub 3/)/sub 2/NH. However, for the mixed isotope the sine--sine term was found to be negligible and the cos--cos about one-half the value obtained for the other two isotopes.
