2915.39.70.00 - Isobutyl acetate

This HTS category, 2915.39.70.00, specifically classifies Isobutyl acetate. Isobutyl acetate is an ester derived from acetic acid and isobutyl alcohol, characterized by its fruity odor and use as a solvent in various applications, including lacquers, inks, and as a flavoring agent. Its inclusion here signifies its placement within the broader group of esters of acetic acid that are not otherwise specified.

Distinguishing Isobutyl acetate from its siblings is crucial for accurate classification. For instance, 2915.39.60.00 covers Bis(bromoacetoxy)butene, a compound with distinct chemical properties and potential uses, while 2915.39.80.00 classifies 2-Ethoxyethyl acetate, which involves a different alcohol component. 2915.39.90.00, "Other," serves as a residual category for other acetic acid esters not meeting the specific criteria of the preceding subheadings.

As a leaf node, 2915.39.70.00 has no further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification within this specific code is on confirming the identity of the imported or exported substance as Isobutyl acetate, based on its chemical composition and intended use. Any variations or related compounds not explicitly listed under other subheadings would typically fall under the residual "Other" category at the same or a higher level.
