UNSPSC 51273608: Cocaine methiodide

This classification denotes a cns stimulant with the molecular formula C18H24NO4.I, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier 83FKO5XD6J, chemically known as (-)-cocaine methiodide, but more generally known as cocaine methiodide, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 83828. European Medicines Agency schedules cocaine methiodide or its base in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB13416MIG. Most nations, for tariff purposes, schedule cocaine methiodide under HS 29399110.

SMILES: C[N+]1([C@H]2CC[C@@H]1[C@H]([C@H](C2)OC(=O)C3CCCCC3)C(=O)OC)C.[I-].

UNSPSC 51273608 Cocaine methiodide is a Commodity code that nominally describes a controlled pharmaceutical precursor compound, but recent state and local procurement activity shows little substantive purchasing under this code. The single posted opportunity in the recent record — Seminole County, Florida's IFB 60459723LAS for naloxone and drug deactivation systems — is unrelated to the code's stated scope; the county is procuring naloxone (an opioid antagonist used for overdose reversal) and safe drug deactivation equipment, neither of which aligns with cocaine methiodide as a commodity. No issuing bodies beyond Seminole County appear in the recent-opportunities block, and no pattern of activity across state and local jurisdictions supports a viable procurement lane under this code.

Geographic activity is limited to Florida based on the single record. Seminole County's July 2026 posting (IFB 60459723LAS, due July 26, 2023) requested annual procurement of 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems with quarterly deliveries to the Seminole County Community Health Building in Sanford, Florida; the contract structure included a two-year initial term with a one-year renewal option. The mismatch between the code's pharmaceutical-chemistry scope and the public-health focus of the actual opportunity suggests the code is either infrequently used in state and local procurement or has been incorrectly tagged in this instance. Bidders should verify code alignment with issuing agencies before committing resources to opportunities posted under this classification.
