Products classified under HTS 2912.19.20.00
Citral
Citral is an acyclic aldehyde (chemically 3,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadienal) used primarily as a flavoring compound in lemon and citrus flavorings for foods and beverages. It falls under HTS 2912.19.20.00 as an acyclic aldehyde without other oxygen function, specifically classified as an odoriferous or flavoring compound that is 'other' within this subcategory. This pure chemical compound is imported for use in the food, fragrance, and perfumery industries.
Decanal
Decanal, also known as capric aldehyde, is a straight-chain acyclic aldehyde used as a flavoring agent imparting orange and aldehyde notes in food products like beverages and confectionery. Classified under HTS 2912.19.20.00 as an 'other' odoriferous or flavoring compound derived from acyclic aldehydes without additional oxygen functions. It's a key ingredient in synthetic flavor formulations.
Cinnamaldehyde
Cinnamaldehyde, the principal component of cinnamon oil, is an α,β-unsaturated acyclic aldehyde used as a flavoring in chewing gum, candies, and beverages. Falls under HTS 2912.19.20.00 as an 'other' odoriferous or flavoring compound among acyclic aldehydes lacking other oxygen functions. Imported pure for food and oral care formulations.
Nonanal
Nonanal, a nine-carbon acyclic aldehyde, provides fatty, orange peel flavor notes for citrus and rose fragrance compounds in foods and perfumes. HTS 2912.19.20.00 covers it as an 'other' odoriferous/flavoring acyclic aldehyde. Pure form imported for blending in flavor houses.
Vanillin
Synthetic vanillin is an acyclic aldehyde (4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde) serving as the primary flavoring compound for vanilla taste in ice cream, beverages, and baked goods. It qualifies for HTS 2912.19.20.00 as an 'other' odoriferous or flavoring acyclic aldehyde without other oxygen functions in its principal chemical structure. This commodity chemical is widely imported for food manufacturing.
Hexanal
Hexanal is a six-carbon acyclic aldehyde providing green, grassy flavor notes used in fruit and vegetable flavorings for processed foods. It is classified under HTS 2912.19.20.00 as an 'other' flavoring compound from acyclic aldehydes without additional oxygen functions. Commonly imported as a pure chemical for flavor synthesis.
2-Methylbutanal
2-Methylbutanal is a branched acyclic aldehyde imparting malty, chocolate-like flavors used in beer, chocolate, and nut flavorings. Classified in HTS 2912.19.20.00 as an 'other' flavoring acyclic aldehyde without other oxygen functions. Essential for synthetic flavor industry imports.
