2924.29.05.00 - Biligrafin acid; 3,5-Diacetamido-2,4,6-triiodobenzoic acid; and Metrizoic acid

This HTS classification, 2924.29.05.00, specifically covers aromatic carboxyamide and amide-function compounds derived from carbonic acid that are not otherwise specified. The items listed, Biligrafin acid, 3,5-Diacetamido-2,4,6-triiodobenzoic acid, and Metrizoic acid, are characterized by their complex aromatic structures featuring multiple amide linkages and in the case of Biligrafin acid and Metrizoic acid, iodine substituents. These compounds are often utilized in specific industrial or medical applications, such as diagnostic imaging agents due to their radiopaque properties.

This category is distinguished from its siblings by the specific chemical structures of the included compounds. While other sibling categories like 2924.29.01.00 and 2924.29.10.00 also cover aromatic amides, they encompass a broader range of simpler acetanilides and related compounds. For instance, 2924.29.03.00 focuses on dinitro derivatives, and 2924.29.20.00 and 2924.29.23.00 include anthraquinone derivatives or compounds with different functional group arrangements. The defining characteristic of 2924.29.05.00 lies in the presence of highly substituted aromatic rings with specific combinations of amide and, in some cases, iodine functionalities, setting them apart from more general aromatic amide classifications.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS classification system, there are no further subdivisions. Classification at this level is dependent on the precise identification of the chemical compound against the listed examples and the overarching description of aromatic carboxyamide-function compounds of carbonic acid. The specific examples provided serve as primary guides for determining if an imported or exported substance falls under this particular tariff code, emphasizing the need for detailed chemical analysis and verification.
