HS Code 2921.13 – Amine-function compounds; acyclic monoamines and their derivatives, and salts thereof, 2-(N,N-Diethylamino)ethylchloride hydrochloride
HS code 2921.13 is the 6-digit subheading for amine-function compounds, acyclic monoamines and their derivatives, and salts thereof, 2-(N,N-Diethylamino)ethylchloride hydrochloride. It is used for 2-(N,N-Diethylamino)ethylchloride hydrochloride and DEAC-HCl.
What HS 2921.13 covers
This HS code specifically covers 2-(N,N-Diethylamino)ethylchloride hydrochloride, an acyclic monoamine derivative and its salt. Similar to its dimethyl analogue, this compound is a highly specialized chemical intermediate. It is predominantly traded by fine chemical producers, pharmaceutical companies, and contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs) that specialize in complex organic synthesis. This chemical serves as a vital precursor in the synthesis of various active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly those with anticholinergic or antihistaminic properties, as well as other specialty chemicals. International trade in this compound emphasizes stringent quality control, high purity, and adherence to Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) due to its critical role in pharmaceutical production.

Codes often confused with 2921.13
Common mistake. This code is highly specific; confusion could arise with 292112 (dimethyl analogue) or 292114 (diisopropyl analogue) if the specific alkyl groups are not correctly identified, or with 292119 for other unlisted acyclic monoamines.
Top exporters and importers of HS code 292113, 2025
In 2025, the largest exporter of HS code 292113 in UN Comtrade data was Switzerland, with 31% of world exports; the largest importer in UN Comtrade data was France, with 33% of world imports. Countries that did not report 2025 data are estimated from partner records, which can understate them.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
