NIGP codes for 51272502
Definition
This classification denotes an industrial aid with the molecular formula C2Cl2F4, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier 6B5VVT93AR, chemically known as 1,1,2,2-tetrafluoro-1,2-dichloroethane but generally known as cryofluorane, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 6429. European Medicines Agency schedules Cryofluorane in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB06832MIG.
The term CRYOFLUORANE is an International Non-Proprietary Name or INN (see WHO INN reference publication, Volume 13, No. 12, 1959, List 3). CRYOFLUORANE is scheduled in the U.S. International Trade Commission's Harmonized Tariff System (HTS) Pharmaceutical Appendix. Cryofluorane or dichlorotetrafluoroethane bears US NLM identifiers UMLS ID C0443384 and NCI Concept Code C76747. SMILES: CLC(F)(F)C(CL)(F)F.
About UNSPSC 51272502
UNSPSC 51272502 Cryofluorane or dichlorotetrafluoroethane is a Commodity code that shows minimal alignment with actual state and local procurement activity in the recent-opportunities block. The three posted opportunities—Seminole County's procurement for naloxone and drug deactivation systems, Texas HHS's RFI on direct-to-manufacturer prescriptions, and MMCAP's RFP for generic multi-source pharmaceuticals and OTC products—do not involve cryofluorane or related refrigerant compounds. The code nominally describes a specific fluorocarbon chemical used in refrigeration and specialized industrial applications, but the recent state and local activity tagged under it concerns pharmaceutical procurement, naloxone distribution, and pharmacy benefit management. This mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in code assignment or that the tagging system has incorrectly associated pharmaceutical procurement with this chemical commodity code.
The geographic spread of the three opportunities spans Florida (Seminole County), Texas (HHS Commission), and a multistate cooperative (MMCAP, Minnesota-administered with Oregon participation), but none of these opportunities are relevant to cryofluorane procurement. Given the disconnect between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being solicited, this code shows no meaningful recent activity in state and local procurement for refrigerants or related fluorocarbon compounds.
