9902.05.87 - 1-Methyl-3-phenyl-5-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-4(1H)-pyridinone (Fluridone) (CAS No. 59756-60-4) (provided for in subheading 2933.39.25)

This HTS category, 9902.05.87, specifically classifies the chemical compound 1-Methyl-3-phenyl-5-[3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-4(1H)-pyridinone, also known by its common name Fluridone, with CAS Number 59756-60-4. This classification falls under Section XXII, which pertains to Special Classification Provisions and temporary legislation. Specifically, it is nested within Chapter 99, addressing temporary modifications and additional import restrictions proclaimed under trade agreements or Section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act. The provision explicitly states that Fluridone is "provided for in subheading 2933.39.25," indicating that its primary classification under the main HTS structure is within heading 2933, concerning heterocyclic compounds with a nitrogen atom or atoms.

The purpose of this specific 9902 code is to implement special tariff treatment or restrictions on Fluridone, distinct from its general classification under Chapter 29. While the sibling categories at the root level of the HTS cover a vast array of goods such as live animals and agricultural products, this entry is exceptionally specific, focusing on a single chemical substance. Therefore, there are no direct sibling comparisons to be made at this immediate level beyond recognizing its unique placement within the temporary and special provisions.

As this node is a leaf node, it does not have any subcategories. Its classification is definitive for the specified chemical compound under the temporary provisions outlined in Chapter 99. Any imported shipments of Fluridone must be examined to ensure compliance with the requirements and conditions associated with this 9902.05.87 classification, which may involve specific documentation, quotas, or duty rates beyond those applied to its general tariff classification.
