Overview
This HTS classification covers 2-(N,N-Dimethylamino)ethyl chloride hydrochloride, a specific organic chemical compound. It falls within the broader category of acyclic monoamines and their derivatives, characterized by the presence of an amine group and a chloride atom within an ethyl chain, stabilized as a hydrochloride salt. This compound is primarily utilized as an intermediate in the synthesis of various pharmaceuticals and other organic chemicals.
Distinct from its sibling categories, this HTS code specifically identifies the hydrochloride salt of the ethyl chloride derivative of N,N-dimethylamine. For instance, HTS code 2921.11.00.00 covers simpler methylamines and their salts, while 2921.13.00.00 and 2921.14.00.00 pertain to the analogous diethyl and diisopropyl derivatives, respectively. The distinguishing factor lies in the specific alkyl groups attached to the nitrogen atom of the amine function.
As a leaf node in the HTS classification system, 2921.12.01.00 does not have further subdivisions. Therefore, precise identification relies on the chemical name and structure provided. Classification under this code requires confirmation that the imported or exported good is indeed 2-(N,N-Dimethylamino)ethyl chloride hydrochloride, considering its chemical composition and properties as the definitive classification criteria.
