Mecoprop-P Acid (MCPP-P) Pure Form
Mecoprop-P is the enantiomerically pure form of 2-Methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid, specifically identified in HTS 2918.99.2015 for its pesticide properties as an aromatic carboxylic acid with oxygen function. This selective herbicide targets broadleaf weeds in cereal crops and ornamental turf.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If when diluted or mixed with inert carriers for herbicide application
Pesticide preparations containing mecoprop-P as active ingredient are classified under finished herbicide products in heading 3808.
If non-aromatic phenoxyacetic acid derivatives
Aliphatic versions without the aromatic ring structure fall under the non-aromatic carboxylic acid category.
If ether-carboxylic acids without pesticide designation
If not certified for pesticide use and imported for general chemical applications, classification shifts to ether derivatives.
