9902.04.43 - 2-Chloro-N-(2-ethyl-6-methylphenyl)-N-[(1S)-2-meth- oxy-1-methylethyl]acetamide ((S)-Metolachlor) (CAS No. 87392-12-9) (provided for in subheading 2924.29.47)

This HTS classification, 9902.04.43, specifically covers (S)-Metolachlor, identified by CAS No. 87392-12-9. This compound is a stereoisomer of metolachlor and is a herbicide used to control grasses and broadleaf weeds, particularly in crops like corn and soybeans. Its classification within Chapter 99 signifies that it is subject to special provisions, temporary legislation, or trade agreement modifications, rather than being a standard commodity classification under Chapters 1-97.

Given that this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to explore. The primary distinguishing characteristic of this entry is its specific chemical identity and the associated temporary or special trade status. It differs from general chemical classifications by being designated under Chapter 99, which overrides or supplements the standard tariff treatment based on trade policy and specific legislative actions. The parent context highlights that these Chapter 99 provisions are applied in conjunction with other HTS sections and may involve temporary import restrictions.
