Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

2921.42Lower: 16.5% vs 35%

If classified primarily by nitro function over hydrazine

Chapter note clarifies nitro groups aren't 'nitrogen functions' for 2929, but misemphasis could lead to o-/m-/p-nitroaniline-like classification.

2930.90Lower: 13.7% vs 35%

If sulfur atom directly linked to carbon

Organo-sulfur compounds in 2930 take precedence if sulfur defines character over hydrazine.

3204.11.50.00Higher: 41.5% vs 35%

If put up as fluorescent brightener

Chapter exclusion (g) moves synthetic organic luminophores to Chapter 32.

Import Tips & Compliance

• Provide spectroscopic confirmation (NMR/IR) of nitro substitution to affirm chemically defined status

• Classify as UN 3294 toxic solid; use child-resistant packaging for retail lab quantities

• Avoid declaring as 'nitro compound' primarily, as hydrazine parent takes precedence in 2928
