RE: The tariff classification of Triphenylmethyl Chloride from France.
Dear Ms. von Doehren:
In your letter dated May 8, 1995, you requested a tariff
classification ruling for Triphenylmethyl Chloride (a protective
group in organic synthesis).
The applicable subheading will be 2903.69.1500, Harmonized
Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for
halogenated derivatives of hydrocarbons. This provision is duty
free.
This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section
177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry
documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If the
documents have been filed without a copy, this ruling should be
brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the
transaction.
Sincerely,
Jean F. Maguire
Area Director
