One of Nezahualpilli's sons, he succeeded to throne after the death of his half-brother Cacama in 1520.^{[1]: 315–316} When the forces under Hernán Cortés approached Texcoco during their conquest of the Aztec Empire, Coanacoch fled to Tenochtitlan. In his place, Cortés appointed his Spain-aligned brother Tecocoltzin as tlatoani of Texcoco.^[2]

Coanacoch assisted Cuauhtémoc at the Fall of Tenochtitlan in defending the city and was captured after its fall. He was executed by Cortés in 1524.^[2]
