RE:  The tariff classification of butynil chlorohydrinether from
Germany.

Dear Mr. Donohoe:

     In your letter dated August 22, 1991, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.         
     
     According to your letter this product is a reaction product
made with 2-butyne-1,4-diol and epichlorohydrin.

     The applicable subheading for this product is 2909.49.5000,
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which
provides for ether-alcohols.  The rate of duty will be 12.3
percent ad valorem.   

     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,
