Equilibrium constants the gas-phase synthesis reaction of 2-ethyl-2-methoxypropane (EMOP) from methanol and a 2-methylbutene have been found at the temperatures: 373 K, 399 K, and 413 K.The molar enthalpy of combustion was determined calorimetrically. Δ_vapH_m^deg(298.15 K) = (35.3 +/- 1.5) kJ * mol^-1 and Δ_fH_m^deg(298.15 K, g) = -(305.4 +/- 1.8) kJ * mol^-1 were found for EMOP both on the basis of the results obtained in the present work and literature values.
