Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If part of a mixture of pyridine isomers
Mixtures of pyridine compound isomers classify under 2933.39 per chapter note 2(b), separate from specific enumerated compounds.
If for industrial herbicide formulations at standard strengths
When put up for retail or diluted for specific pesticidal use, moves to Chapter 38 herbicides rather than pure Chapter 29 compounds.
If esterified with sugar derivatives
Sugar esters of such compounds fall under 2940 per chapter note 2(c), changing classification based on ester type.
