U.S. imports of amino-aldehydes, amino-ketones & amino-quinones (single oxygen function) and salts (SITC 51463) totaled $2.6M in July 2026, traded with 11 countries.
Importers of Amino-Aldehydes, Amino-Ketones & Amino-Quinones (Single Oxygen Function) and Salts paid $33K in duties in July 2026 — an effective duty rate of 30% on $111K in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Amino-Aldehydes, Amino-Ketones & Amino-Quinones (Single Oxygen Function) and Salts imports of $2.6M in July 2026 ran 34% above the year-to-date monthly average of $1.9M.
Last updated: July 2026 dataCompounds combining carbonyl functionality (aldehyde, ketone, or quinone) with an amine group — while containing only one type of oxygen function — serve specialized roles as pharmaceutical intermediates, agrochemical building blocks, and reactive dye components. Amino-quinones in particular are valued in antitumor drug synthesis and electrochemical applications. This is a relatively narrow commercial category compared to amino-alcohols or amino-phenols, but precise structural identification is essential because the carbonyl type (aldehyde vs. ketone vs. quinone) can determine the applicable HTS subheading and duty rate.

Amino-quinones are used as intermediates in the synthesis of anthraquinone-based dyes, certain antitumor pharmaceuticals, and redox-active materials for battery research. Although traded in smaller volumes than amino-alcohols or amino-phenols, they command higher unit values and often require detailed chemical documentation — including CAS number and purity certificate — to support correct classification.
The commercial invoice and certificate of analysis should include the IUPAC name, CAS registry number, and structural formula. CBP may request this information to confirm whether the carbonyl group is terminal (aldehyde) or internal (ketone), as these can map to different HTS subheadings. A binding ruling is advisable for novel or ambiguous structures.
