HazMat Fee

An item is classified as a dangerous good if our website displays Hazardous Material (HazMat) information for it. There is a HazMat shipping fee for each item that qualifies as a dangerous good, except in the following scenarios:

The shipment is processed through FedEx Ground under the Limited Quantity option.

Each bottle is packed as an Excepted Quantity, with a maximum of 1g for items in class 6.1 packing group I or II, and up to 25g for all other hazardous materials.

If shipping is charged to your FedEx account, the HazMat fee will be billed directly by the courier. Otherwise, the fee will be included on your invoice. To help you avoid the HazMat fee, we can package a 5g order of a class 6.1 packing group I or II material as five separate 1g units, and a 100g order of any other dangerous good as four 25g units. This packaging adjustment will be made unless you instruct otherwise on your purchase order. Below, you will find the fee schedule from FedEx for handling hazardous materials.

Description

tert-Butyl 4-hydroxybutanoate features a hydroxyl-functionalized aliphatic chain anchored by a sterically shielded tert-butyl ester. This combination delivers enhanced stability and controlled reactivity, enabling selective transformations in synthetic sequences. The molecule integrates seamlessly into complex synthesis workflows requiring orthogonal protection strategies.

Application

tert-Butyl 4-hydroxybutanoate serves as a stable, bench-ready precursor for γ-hydroxybutyrate (GHB) derivatives and related heterocyclic scaffolds. Its hydroxyl group enables selective protection, oxidation, or esterification under standard conditions, while the tert-butyl ester offers facile deprotection via mild acidolysis. The molecule functions effectively in multistep syntheses requiring orthogonal functional group handling, particularly in the construction of bioactive lactones and cyclic ether intermediates.
