Products classified under HTS 2926.90.50
Acrylonitrile
Acrylonitrile is a colorless liquid organic compound with the formula CH2=CHCN, featuring a nitrile functional group directly attached to a vinyl group. It falls under HTS 2926.90.50 as a nitrile-function compound not specifically covered by other subheadings in heading 2926. Primarily used in the production of acrylic fibers, synthetic rubber, and resins.
Adiponitrile
Adiponitrile (NC(CH2)4CN) is a dinitrile compound used primarily as an intermediate in nylon-6,6 production via hexamethylenediamine synthesis. Classified under HTS 2926.90.50 as a 'other' nitrile-function compound in heading 2926. It meets Chapter 29 requirements for separate chemically defined organic compounds.
Benzonitrile
Benzonitrile (C6H5CN) is an aromatic nitrile serving as a solvent and chemical intermediate for pharmaceuticals, dyes, and rubber additives. It qualifies for HTS 2926.90.50 as a nitrile-function compound not enumerated elsewhere in the heading. The compound is a clear, colorless liquid with almond-like odor.
Mandelonitrile
Mandelonitrile (C6H5CH(OH)CN) is an alpha-hydroxy nitrile used in organic synthesis and as a precursor for pharmaceuticals like mandelamide. Falls under HTS 2926.90.50 as other nitrile-function compounds; the hydroxyl group doesn't override nitrile classification per Chapter 29 structure rules.
Allyl Cyanide (3-Butenenitrile)
3-Butenenitrile (CH2=CHCH2CN), also known as allyl cyanide, is an unsaturated aliphatic nitrile used in polymer and pharmaceutical synthesis. Classified in HTS 2926.90.50 as a non-specific nitrile-function compound meeting Chapter 29(a) criteria for chemically defined organic compounds.
Ethyl Cyanoacetate
Ethyl cyanoacetate (NCCH2CO2Et) is a versatile nitrile ester used in Knoevenagel condensations and pharmaceutical synthesis. It classifies under HTS 2926.90.50 because the nitrile function defines its chemical identity over ester per Chapter Note 1(A) cross-subchapter rules.
Cyanoacetic Acid
Cyanoacetic acid (NCCH2COOH) is a nitrile carboxylic acid used in agrochemical and pharmaceutical manufacturing. HTS 2926.90.50 applies as the nitrile function takes precedence over carboxylic acid per Chapter 29 classification hierarchy for multi-function compounds.
Phenylacetonitrile
Phenylacetonitrile (C6H5CH2CN), also called benzyl cyanide, serves as an intermediate for pharmaceuticals, perfumes, and phenylacetic acid production. Falls under HTS 2926.90.50 as an other aromatic nitrile-function compound consistent with Chapter 29 scope.
Valeronitrile
Valeronitrile (CH3(CH2)3CN), or pentanenitrile, is an aliphatic nitrile used in fatty acid derivative synthesis and as a chemical intermediate. Classified HTS 2926.90.50 as other acyclic nitrile-function compounds meeting purity standards of Chapter 29 note (a).
Isobutyronitrile
Isobutyronitrile ((CH3)2CHCN) is a branched aliphatic nitrile used in fine chemical synthesis and extractive distillation solvents. HTS 2926.90.50 covers this as an other nitrile-function compound; its chemical definition fits Chapter 29(a) perfectly without exclusions.
2-Cyanopyridine
2-Cyanopyridine is a heterocyclic aromatic nitrile used in pharmaceutical synthesis and as a ligand in catalysis. Despite heterocyclic nature, classifies under HTS 2926.90.50 because nitrile function defines the principal chemical character per Chapter 29 notes.
Methacrylonitrile
Methacrylonitrile (CH2=C(CH3)CN) is an α,β-unsaturated nitrile copolymer used in specialty acrylic polymers and adhesives. HTS 2926.90.50 applies as other nitrile-function compounds; distinguishes from acrylonitrile by methyl substitution.
Propionitrile
Propionitrile (CH3CH2CN), or propanenitrile, is a simple aliphatic nitrile used in pharmaceutical synthesis and as an intermediate for propionic acid. Falls under HTS 2926.90.50 as a basic 'other' nitrile-function compound fully compliant with Chapter 29 definitions.
Fumaronitrile
Fumaronitrile (NCCH=CHCN) is a trans-1,2-dicyanoethylene used in Diels-Alder reactions and polymer modification. Classified HTS 2926.90.50 as other unsaturated nitrile-function compound; dual nitrile groups don't trigger separate subheading.
Cinnamaldehyde Cyanohydrin
Cinnamaldehyde cyanohydrin is an α,β-unsaturated cyanohydrin used in perfume synthesis and as a fragrance intermediate. HTS 2926.90.50 covers this complex nitrile as 'other'; hydroxy group secondary to nitrile function per chapter notes.
