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

Potassium 6-hydroxyhexanoate delivers a hydrophilic, bench-stable carboxylate anion paired with a terminal hydroxyl group, enabling straightforward incorporation into aqueous-phase syntheses and functionalization workflows.

Application

Potassium 6-hydroxyhexanoate serves as a versatile building block for the synthesis of lactones, polyesters, and functionalized cyclic ethers. Its terminal hydroxyl group enables straightforward derivatization via esterification, etherification, or oxidation, while the carboxylate functionality offers compatibility with coupling reactions. The salt form enhances solubility and stability in aqueous and polar organic media, facilitating handling and purification in synthetic workflows.
