Changes in the spectral characteristics of the vibrational bands of n-butane have been studied in the spectral range 300-1100 cm(-1) at a temperature varied from 285 to 365 K and a methane pressure varied in the range 2-40 atm. It was established that the enthalpy of the trans-gauche transition of n-butane in the gas phase is 657 +/- 66 cal/mol. The methane pressure in the given range was found to have a negligible effect on the conformational equilibrium of n-butane. The impact of changes in the spectral characteristics of n-butane on the accuracy of measuring the composition of natural gas using Raman spectroscopy was determined.
