Overview
This classification, HTS Code 9902.02.68, specifically covers 1-Nitroanthraquinone (also known as 1-nitroanthracene-9,10-dione, CAS No. 82-34-8). While it is related to Chapter 99 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule, which pertains to temporary legislation and special provisions, its placement here indicates a specific temporary modification or restriction applied to this particular chemical compound. The parenthetical reference to subheading 2914.79.40 indicates its underlying classification within the permanent HTS structure, typically for organic chemicals or specific dyes and pigments.
Distinguishing this entry from its sibling categories within Chapter 99 is straightforward, as each sibling code will represent a distinct temporary measure or specific commodity subject to such provisions. Unlike general commodity chapters which group by material or function (e.g., live animals, machinery), Chapter 99 codes are event-driven or policy-driven. Therefore, 9902.02.68 is unique in its focus on 1-Nitroanthraquinone, and any comparison to sibling codes would relate to the specific nature of the temporary provision they represent, not the inherent characteristics of the goods themselves.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. The classification of 1-Nitroanthraquinone under 9902.02.68 signifies that its import or export is subject to specific, temporary regulations beyond its standard classification in Chapter 29. Users should consult the documentation associated with this HTS code for detailed information on the nature of the temporary legislation or modification impacting this chemical.
