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.

Excepted Quantity	$0.00
FedEx Limited Quantities Ground	$0.00
Hazmat Ground shipping	$50.00+
Inaccessible (Haz class 6.1 or 9), Domestic	$68.00+

Description

Methyl 4-methyl-5-nitropyridine-2-carboxylate features a pyridine core bearing a nitro group at C5 and a methyl substituent at C4, enabling electronic modulation for synthetic applications. The ester functionality facilitates downstream derivatization, while the electron-deficient ring supports nucleophilic substitution reactions under mild conditions. This compound serves as a key intermediate in medicinal chemistry and heterocyclic synthesis.

Application

Methyl 4-methyl-5-nitropyridine-2-carboxylate serves as a versatile building block in heterocyclic synthesis, enabling efficient access to pyridine-based scaffolds through selective reduction and functionalization. The nitro group facilitates downstream transformations such as amine formation or coupling reactions, while the ester moiety supports cross-coupling and nucleophilic substitution. Bench-stable and readily purified by column chromatography, it functions effectively in medicinal chemistry campaigns requiring nitrogen-rich core structures.
