Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If pre-nitrated chlorobenzene feedstock
Parent halogenated hydrocarbons classify in 2903 if nitration incomplete.
If when used as pigment intermediate with color additives
Synthetic organic luminophores/brighteners exclude from Chapter 29 per note (g).

Import Tips & Compliance
• Batch COA must specify assay method (GC-FID) and impurity profile
• Glass-lined steel drums required; incompatible with iron/steel due to reactivity
• Avoid summer imports to Gulf ports - melting point 82°C risks container failure

3-Chloronitrobenzene
3-Chloronitrobenzene is a monochloromononitrobenzene derivative featuring a single chlorine and nitro group on a benzene ring. It falls under HTS 2904.99.08.00 as a nitrated derivative of a halogenated hydrocarbon (chlorobenzene). Used primarily as an intermediate in dye and pharmaceutical synthesis.
4-Chloronitrobenzene
4-Chloronitrobenzene (p-chloronitrobenzene) contains nitro and chlorine substituents in para position on benzene. Classified in HTS 2904.99.08.00 as 'other' monochloromononitrobenzenes (excluding ortho isomer). Key intermediate for pesticides and rubber antioxidants.
Monochloronitrobenzene Mixture (Meta/Para)
Industrial mixture containing 60% m-chloronitrobenzene and 40% p-chloronitrobenzene, separated from o-isomer. Qualifies under HTS 2904.99.08.00 as chemically defined isomers mixture per Chapter 29 note (b). Used in herbicide synthesis.
3,5-Dichloronitrobenzene (Refined)
3,5-Dichloronitrobenzene technically fits 'monochloromononitrobenzenes' broadly but classified here as specialty 'other' derivative. HTS 2904.99.08.00 covers nitrated halogenated hydrocarbons beyond ortho isomer. Used in pharmaceutical brightening agents.
p-Chloronitrobenzene Flakes
p-Chloronitrobenzene solidified into yellow flakes for easier handling. Retains HTS 2904.99.08.00 classification as physical form doesn't affect chemical definition. Preferred for dye coupling agent production.
