Import Tips
• Include spectroscopic data (NMR, IR) to confirm identity, as nitro groups require note compliance for nitrated derivatives
• Label clearly as research chemical to prevent confusion with finished drugs; ensure no therapeutic claims in documentation
• Check for anti-dumping on nitro compounds; provide origin certificates to avoid penalties
