I made it by esterification (xs Methanol and Sodium Bisulphate then adding Sodium Nitrite, capture the resulting gas with a dry ice cold trap. Used it for monopropellant rockets. Nitromethane article says traces of Methyl Nitrite responsible for explosions, should emphasize hazard. Perhaps Methyl Iodide and Sodium Cobaltinitrite, rather than Silver Nitrite, as nitrogen is bound tightly by Cobalt. There should be some reference to Methyl Nitrite chemistry; like other alkyl nitrites it forms complexes and has Nitroxyl (NO, Nitroglycerin) physiology in the animal/human body, should be part of its toxicity warning.
