Commodity Code
Description

Overview

This category, HTS Code 2905.59, encompasses acyclic alcohols and their derivatives that have been modified through halogenation, sulfonation, nitration, or nitrosation. These transformations result in compounds with altered chemical properties, often for specific industrial or pharmaceutical applications. The scope includes a broad range of synthesized chemicals where the core structure originates from an acyclic alcohol backbone.

Within the broader group of halogenated, sulfonated, nitrated, or nitrosated derivatives of acyclic alcohols, this code is distinct from its sibling category, 2905.51.00.00, which specifically designates Ethchlorvynol (INN). Therefore, HTS Code 2905.59 covers all other acyclic alcohol derivatives falling under this broad description, excluding the specifically enumerated Ethchlorvynol.

The subcategories under 2905.59 further refine the classification based on the nature of the derivative. 2905.59.10.00 pertains to derivatives originating from monohydric alcohols, indicating a single hydroxyl group in the parent acyclic alcohol. 2905.59.30.00 is reserved for a specific compound, Dibromoneopentylglycol, which is itself a halogenated derivative. Finally, 2905.59.90.00 serves as a residual category for any remaining acyclic alcohol derivatives that do not fit into the more specific subcategories, ensuring comprehensive coverage.
