To understand the conformation of 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME) in water, a system of two kinds of molecules, DME and H_2O, was focused. The interaction of various conformers of DME with water was studied by means of ab initio molecular orbital calculation with 6-31G (d) basis set. It is shown that there are two forms of interactions between the two molecules in the system, the close touched (H_2O attaches to the two oxygen atoms of DME) and the open touched (H_2O attaches to one oxygen atom of DME) structures. The conformation of DME is remarkably influenced by the interactions. Instead the ttt conformer is preferred in the gas state, with a close touched H_2O the tgt conformer becomes the most stable one. The obtained hydration energies show that the stabilized order of DME conformers by water is tgt>tgg′>ttt.
