Products classified under HTS 2904.20.50.00
Nitrobenzene
Nitrobenzene is a pale yellow liquid organic compound with the formula C6H5NO2, produced by nitration of benzene. It falls under HTS 2904.20.5000 as a sulfonated/nitrated derivative of hydrocarbons containing only nitro groups, used primarily as an intermediate in aniline production. This classification applies to pure nitrobenzene not covered by more specific subheadings.
Nitromethane
Nitromethane (CH3NO2) is a simple nitroalkane used as a solvent, fuel additive, and chemical intermediate. It qualifies under HTS 2904.20.5000 as a nitrated derivative of hydrocarbons (methane) containing only nitro groups. Chapter notes confirm acyclic nitro compounds belong here.
2-Nitrotoluene
2-Nitrotoluene (o-nitrotoluene, C7H7NO2) is an isomeric nitro derivative of toluene used in explosives and dyes. Falls under HTS 2904.20.5000 as 'other' nitrated aromatic hydrocarbon with single nitro group. Distinguished from dinitro derivatives.
4-Nitrobiphenyl
4-Nitrobiphenyl (C12H9NO2) is a nitrated derivative of biphenyl used in research and as a synthetic intermediate. Classified in HTS 2904.20.5000 for its single nitro group on polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon base. Meets chapter 29 purity requirements.
1-Nitropropane
1-Nitropropane (C3H7NO2) functions as an industrial solvent and chemical intermediate. HTS 2904.20.5000 applies to this acyclic nitrated hydrocarbon with only nitro functionality. Excluded from chapter 27 petroleum mixtures.
Dinitrobenzene (mixed isomers)
Mixed dinitrobenzene isomers (1,3- and 1,4-) are nitrated hydrocarbon derivatives used in dye and explosive manufacture. While containing two nitro groups, classified under HTS 2904.20.5000 'other' as not separately specified. Chapter note 3 prioritizes last numerical heading.
Nitrocyclohexane
Nitrocyclohexane (C6H11NO2) is a cyclic nitroalkane used in organic synthesis. Falls under HTS 2904.20.5000 as nitrated hydrocarbon derivative with only nitro groups. Chemically defined per chapter notes.
2-Nitrothiophene
2-Nitrothiophene contains sulfur directly linked to carbon with nitro group, but classified as nitrated hydrocarbon derivative under HTS 2904.20.5000 when sulfur doesn't alter principal nitro character. Used in pharmaceutical intermediates.
Nitroanisole (4-Nitroanisole)
4-Nitroanisole (methoxy nitrobenzene) technically ether but nitro group principal characteristic for HTS 2904.20.5000 classification. Used as dye intermediate and photographic chemical.
1-Fluoro-2-nitrobenzene
1-Fluoro-2-nitrobenzene is a halogenated nitrated aromatic used in fluoroaromatic synthesis. Despite halogenation, classified under HTS 2904.20.5000 'other' nitro derivatives per chapter note 4. Single nitro group confirmed.
Nitroisopropane (2-Nitropropane)
2-Nitropropane (isopropyl nitrate precursor) used in coatings and inks. HTS 2904.20.5000 for branched chain nitroalkane with single nitro functionality. Chemically defined compound.
4-Nitrostyrene
4-Nitrostyrene (vinyl nitrobenzene) polymer precursor with nitro group on aromatic ring. Classified HTS 2904.20.5000 as nitrated hydrocarbon derivative. Polymerization inhibitor present for stability.
2,6-Dinitrotoluene Technical Grade
Technical grade 2,6-dinitrotoluene used in polyurethane and explosives. HTS 2904.20.5000 'other' for mixed polynitro toluene not purely specified elsewhere. Contains minor isomers per chapter purity notes.
1-Nitronaphthalene
1-Nitronaphthalene (C10H7NO2) is a nitro derivative of naphthalene used in dye intermediates and pharmaceuticals. Classified under HTS 2904.20.5000 as a nitrated hydrocarbon derivative containing only nitro groups, not halogenated. It matches chapter 29 notes for separate chemically defined compounds.
Nitroethane
Nitroethane (C2H5NO2) serves as a solvent and intermediate in pharmaceutical synthesis. HTS 2904.20.5000 covers this nitrated acyclic hydrocarbon with only nitro functionality. Excluded from chapter 27 as it's not a crude hydrocarbon mixture.
