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

Methyl 5-oxohexanoate is a versatile β-keto ester featuring a ketone group at the C5 position and a methyl ester terminus. This structural motif enables efficient enolization and participation in Claisen condensations, Michael additions, and asymmetric synthesis. The compound exhibits favorable stability under standard conditions and integrates readily into complex molecular architectures.

Application

Methyl 5-oxohexanoate serves as a versatile building block in synthetic organic chemistry, enabling efficient access to γ-keto ester derivatives and functionalized heterocycles. Its α,β-unsaturated carbonyl motif facilitates Michael additions, aldol reactions, and cyclizations under mild conditions. The methyl ester group provides stability and ease of purification, while the ketone functionality supports subsequent transformations including enolate alkylations and reductive couplings. This compound functions reliably in multi-step syntheses for natural product analogs and pharmaceutical intermediates.
