Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If classified by ketone oxygen function
Chapter 29 oxygen function notes restrict classification; ketone-present compounds may go to later 2914 heading.
If in odoriferous mixtures for perfumery
Mixtures of Chapter 29 compounds prepared as perfumes classify under Chapter 33, not as separate pure compounds.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Differentiate cis/trans isomers via NMR spectra in documentation to confirm chemically defined status under Chapter 29 note (b)
• Avoid anti-dusting agents that could trigger note (g) re-evaluation if they impart specific use beyond identification
