TODAY said: nitrogen triodide? is that the compound that explodes when touched with a feather?
Yes, yes it is.
It's a bit more stable when it's wet. Most people will make a batch of it and store it under the ammonia (or under chloroform if I remember correclty). When they want to use it they apply it to a surface and let it dry. As it dries, it becomes less stable, and kaboom!
Either something sets it off, or it just goes off on it's own after it sits for a while.
A prank I have heard of is to put a little bead of NI3 along the track of rollers in somebody's desk drawer. When they close it, it goes kaboom and the noise scares the shit out of them
I think you are thinking of potassium tri-iodide. It forms purple crystals that are highly explosive. If you use less than pure ammonium hydroxide when you make them it is slightly safer, and takes a little more to detonate them. If you are careful you can wrap them in duct tape, and then throw them. The gas released is toxic I believe.

Umm nope, potassium tri-iodide can be used to prepare it in quantity, but its really NI3, nitrogen tri-iodide.
You shouldn't do *anything* with NI3, other than prepare no more than 10mg on the spot where you'll explode it. It shouldnt be handled.
The NI3-in-ducttape idea is from a cookbook, and it is a BAD idea as these crystals are way too unstable to handle.
Its fun to make small projects like that but the dangers are very high. A piece of surface on which you detonate the NI3 may shoot at you several times faster than a bullet.

I know this is an old thread, but chloroform may actually be a useful solvent for extracting psilocybin according to things I've been researching, for example see: http://chemistry.mdma.ch/hiveboard/rhodium/pdf/alkaloids.in.developing.shrooms2.pdf
Anyway, it is difficult to acquire chloroform, but seems relatively easy to make. Nile Red created a video version of this here:
