Import Tips
• Provide detailed chemical analysis (NMR, GC-MS) confirming the 3,4-dichloro substitution pattern to distinguish from 2,6-isomer
• Include Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and CAS number (6574-96-7) in documentation for proper classification
• Verify purity levels (>98%) as impurities may affect classification under Chapter 29 note (a)
