2905.19 - Other:

This HTS category, 2905.19, encompasses saturated acyclic monohydric alcohols that are not specifically enumerated in preceding subheadings. This includes a broad spectrum of these fundamental organic compounds, excluding methanol, propanols, specific butanols like n-butyl alcohol, and octanols. The key distinguishing factor is the exclusion of explicitly listed individual alcohol types or their isomers within this broader "Other" designation.

Unlike sibling categories that identify common or commercially significant monohydric alcohols by their specific chemical names or chain lengths (e.g., methanol, propanol, butanol, octanol), this heading acts as a residual category. It captures less frequently classified or more complex saturated acyclic monohydric alcohols. Classification here hinges on the absence of a more precise fit in the preceding, more specific subheadings within 2905.1.

The subcategories within 2905.19 provide further refinement. 2905.19.10.00 specifically addresses pentanol, commonly known as amyl alcohol, and its various isomers. The remaining subcategory, 2905.19.90, serves as the ultimate residual for any other saturated acyclic monohydric alcohols not otherwise specified, offering a final catch-all for the diversity of these compounds.
