they'd checked their chemical information with the Encyclopedia Britannica Now THERE's some hard digging reporters, only the most informed reporter would know that Encyclopedia Britannica is where you need to go for detailed information on the chemical makeup of explosives, lol....

Wait a minute. I remember something called a 'Hexi-stove' for heating rations when I was in the service. Same stuff?
(Google Google Google...)
Yup. Sure is...

Hexamine is a urinary antiseptic. It's not an explosive. The sacks of chemicals they allegedly looted could cure their, em, burning feeling when they pee, but they sure ain't making any improvised explosive devices from them.

Dude, you totally rock!

Great Job! (Just curious...are you appropriately clad in pajamas?)

The 14N NMR spectrum of hexamethylenetetramine (HMT) is dominated by the very large electric quadrupole coupling constant of 4.412 MHz at room temperature. Nonetheless, by carefully accounting for this interaction one can subtract its first- and second-order effects on the spectrum, leaving the much smaller anisotropic chemical shift interaction. The chemical shielding anisotropy of HMT is -8.3±3.2 ppm, small but different from zero, with an isotropic chemical shift in good agreement with the value in aqueous solution. This study illustrates how even very tiny chemical shift tensors can be extracted from the NMR spectra of quadrupolar nuclei using appropriate techniques.Dear God. I can't even pronounce half the words in your extract. Whatever the hell you're talking about, rock on, Doc!

I have this image in my mind of a bunch of guys sitting around a stack of this stuff with real puzzled looks on their faces. "But the NYT says it's an explosive!?!"

That's cool- I can take a bunch of cheap urinal cakes next time I go backpacking. :-)
