U.S. imports of Amino-Alcohol-Phenols, Amino-Acid-Phenols and Other Amino Compounds with Oxygen Function (HS 292250) totaled $13.7M in September 2026, imported from 26 countries.
Importers of Amino-Alcohol-Phenols, Amino-Acid-Phenols and Other Amino Compounds with Oxygen Function paid $1.2M in duties in September 2026, an average duty rate of 9.08% — duty actually collected as a share of the imports that cleared customs, not the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: September 2026 dataCompounds combining amino, alcohol, and phenol functional groups include several cardiovascular and bronchodilator drug substances, reflected in dedicated pharmaceutical lines such as 2922501400 (aromatic cardiovascular drugs) and 2922502500 (other aromatic amino-alcohol-phenol drugs). The heading also covers D(-)-p-hydroxyphenylglycine (2922501100), a critical intermediate in the synthesis of semi-synthetic penicillins and cephalosporins. China is the dominant supplier, with Italy and India also significant; given the pharmaceutical character of many lines, FDA oversight of API and intermediate imports is a key compliance consideration for buyers in this space.

D(-)-p-Hydroxyphenylglycine is the key side-chain precursor used in manufacturing amoxicillin and ampicillin, making it a high-value pharmaceutical intermediate. It is classified under 2922501100 in the US schedule. Given its role in antibiotic production, supply-chain concentration in China represents a notable risk factor that importers and procurement teams in the pharmaceutical sector actively monitor.
Yes. Aromatic amino compounds imported as drug intermediates or APIs are subject to FDA review, and the foreign manufacturing facility must be registered with FDA. Importers should verify that the supplier holds current FDA registration and, where applicable, that a drug master file is on file. Admissibility determinations for pharmaceutical chemicals can be complex; consulting both a licensed customs broker and an FDA regulatory specialist is strongly recommended.
