    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-Hydroxymethyl benzoic acid features a carboxylic acid group ortho to a hydroxymethyl substituent, enabling dual functionality for conjugation or derivatization. This arrangement supports integration into polymer backbones, chelating systems, or bioconjugate scaffolds under standard conditions. The molecule exhibits enhanced solubility and stability in aqueous and organic media, facilitating use in synthesis workflows requiring precise functional group placement.

Application

2-Hydroxymethyl benzoic acid serves as a versatile building block in synthetic organic chemistry, enabling efficient access to functionalized aromatic scaffolds. The ortho-hydroxymethyl group facilitates selective derivatization and acts as a handle for further transformations, including oxidation to aldehyde or carboxylic acid, while the carboxylic acid functionality supports amide coupling and esterification. Its bench-stable nature and compatibility with diverse reaction conditions make it ideal for use in medicinal chemistry and materials synthesis workflows.
