Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the structure includes piperazine rather than pyrimidine
Piperazine-containing heterocycles are classified later in numerical order per chapter classification rules.
If imported as a chemical preparation or mixture for pesticidal use
Mixtures not meeting pure compound criteria go to Chapter 38 as prepared chemical products.
If for insecticides rather than herbicides
Insecticidal heterocycles classify under specific pesticide end-use headings in 3808.
