Overview
This HTS category, 2914.50.10.00, specifically covers 5-Benzoyl-4-hydroxy-2-methoxybenzene-sulfonic acid. This compound is characterized by its complex aromatic structure, featuring a benzoyl group, a hydroxyl group, a methoxy group, and a sulfonic acid group attached to a benzene ring. Its specific chemical identity is the primary classification criterion, differentiating it from other related substances within the broader category of aromatic ketone-phenols and ketones with other oxygen functions.
Within the level of aromatic ketones and quinones with other oxygen functions, this specific entry stands alone due to its precise chemical nomenclature. The sibling category, 2914.50.30.00, is designated for "Other" compounds of this type that do not fit the specific description of 5-Benzoyl-4-hydroxy-2-methoxybenzene-sulfonic acid. Therefore, any aromatic ketone-phenol or ketone with another oxygen function not explicitly named here would fall under the "Other" designation.
As this HTS code represents a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification at this level is definitive based on the exact chemical identity of the substance. The presence and arrangement of the benzoyl, hydroxyl, methoxy, and sulfonic acid functionalities on the benzene ring are critical for accurate classification under this specific tariff line.
