Sodium Trichloroacetate

Sodium trichloroacetate is the sodium salt of trichloroacetic acid, a saturated acyclic monocarboxylic acid with three chlorine substitutions. It falls under HTS 2915.40.50 as 'other' salts of trichloroacetic acid, distinct from specific esters or the pure acid. Commonly used in organic synthesis and as a herbicide intermediate.

Methyl Trichloroacetate

Methyl trichloroacetate is the methyl ester of trichloroacetic acid, featuring a saturated acyclic chain with three chlorine atoms on the carboxyl carbon. Classified in HTS 2915.40.50 as an 'other' ester of trichloroacetic acid, used primarily as a solvent and chemical intermediate.

Ethyl Trichloroacetate

Ethyl trichloroacetate, the ethyl ester of trichloroacetic acid, is a halogenated saturated acyclic monocarboxylic acid derivative. It qualifies for HTS 2915.40.50 as an 'other' ester, valued in pharmaceutical synthesis and as a reagent in organic reactions.

Isopropyl Trichloroacetate

Isopropyl trichloroacetate serves as the isopropyl ester of trichloroacetic acid, a key solvent in paint removers and polymer industry. Its classification under HTS 2915.40.50 reflects its status as an 'other' ester of a specifically named chlorocarboxylic acid.

Trichloroacetic Acid Anhydride

Trichloroacetic anhydride, (Cl3CCO)2O, represents the anhydride form of trichloroacetic acid, fitting Chapter 29's scope for monocarboxylic acid anhydrides. HTS 2915.40.50 captures this as an 'other' derivative of trichloroacetic acid, used in acetylation reactions.
