    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

2-Hydroxyethyl acetate is a bench-stable, moisture-tolerant ester featuring a hydroxyl group and acetyl moiety. This bifunctional structure enables seamless integration into synthetic workflows requiring both polarity modulation and reactive handles. The molecule pairs effectively in coupling reactions and serves as a protective group for diols or as a solubilizing agent in organic synthesis.

Application

2-Hydroxyethyl acetate serves as a versatile acetylating agent and protecting group for alcohols, enabling selective O-acetylation under mild conditions. Its bench-stable nature and ease of purification make it ideal for use in multi-step syntheses, particularly in carbohydrate chemistry and peptide derivatization. The molecule functions effectively as a masked acetic acid equivalent and is compatible with a range of functional groups, facilitating efficient synthetic workflows in medicinal and process chemistry applications.
