2934.99.06.00 - 7-Nitronaphth[1,2]oxadiazole-5-sulfonic acid and its salts

This HTS subheading covers specific heterocyclic compounds, namely 7-Nitronaphth[1,2]oxadiazole-5-sulfonic acid and its salts. These are complex organic molecules characterized by the presence of a fused ring system incorporating nitrogen and oxygen within a heterocyclic structure, further modified by a nitro group and a sulfonic acid functional group or its salt form. Their classification at this level indicates they are not specifically enumerated in preceding subheadings within 2934.99.

Distinguishing this item from its siblings requires careful examination of the precise chemical structure and functional groups. For instance, it differs from 2934.99.01.00 (Mycophenolate mofetil), which is a known immunosuppressant, and from other siblings that may feature different heterocyclic cores (e.g., thiadiazoles, benzoxazoles, oxazoles) or different functional group substitutions. The presence of the naphth[1,2]oxadiazole system combined with the nitro and sulfonic acid functionalities is the key differentiator for this specific subheading.

As this subheading represents a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subdivisions. Therefore, classification under 2934.99.06.00 is determined by the presence of the exact chemical entity "7-Nitronaphth[1,2]oxadiazole-5-sulfonic acid and its salts." Importers must ensure that the chemical identity of the imported merchandise precisely matches this description, often requiring laboratory analysis or manufacturer specifications to confirm the correct classification.
