O-2-(Dimethylamino)ethyl Hydrogen Methylphosphonite

This is a specific non-halogenated organo-phosphorus compound featuring a phosphonite group linked to a dimethylaminoethyl chain, classified under HTS 2931.49.00.08 as it matches the exact chemical structure described for phosphonites with dialkylamino substituents. It serves as a key intermediate in synthesizing phosphorus-based ligands for catalysis.

Alternative Classifications

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

2931Same rate: 112.5%

If containing halogen substituents

Halogenated organo-phosphorus derivatives shift to organo-phosphorus halides in 2931.00.3000.

2930.90Lower: 16.2% vs 112.5%

If classified primarily as organo-sulfur rather than phosphorus dominant

Chapter notes prioritize later numerical headings, but sulfur-carbon linkage would place it in organo-sulfur compounds of 2930.

2942.00Lower: 16.2% vs 112.5%

If containing additional heterocyclic nitrogen rings beyond amino group

Organic compounds with heterocyclic structures fall under 2942, superseding organo-inorganic classification.

Import Tips & Compliance

• Provide detailed chemical analysis certificates (COA) confirming the exact phosphonite structure and alkyl chain lengths to avoid misclassification

• Ensure SDS includes safety data for phosphorus compounds; common pitfall is inadequate hazard labeling during transport

• Verify purity levels >95% as impurities may trigger reclassification under general organo-inorganic headings
