Crystal and Molecular Structure of 1,2-Dimethoxyethane Crystallized on a New Diffractometer

Crystal and molecular structure of 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME) with low melting point (−58 °C) was investigated by crystallization on a new imaging plate-Weissenberg type diffractometer with a new low temperature equipment. The crystal belongs to the monoclinic system and the space group is C2/c. There are four molecules in a unit cell. The DME molecule lies on a two-fold axis and has a TGT conformation in the crystalline state.
