It appears to be a stable covalent highly crystalline compound (unlike other metal methanediazoates). Alkanediazoates are easily converted to diazoalkanes, so should be regarded as capable of detonation. (Though named by the author as a methanedia-zoate, it is indexed and registered in CA as a nitrosomethylamide salt) [1], A sample of the freshly synthesised compound was dissolved in dichlorodideuteromethane and sealed into an NMR tube. Four days later, when the tube was being opened for recovery of the sample, the tube exploded. This was attributed to diazomethane formation, possibly from reaction with traces of moisture sealed into the tube [2], See other heavy metal derivatives, n-o compounds...

Rev., 1975, 44, 538-551 Application of electric fields to various explosive heavy metal derivatives (silver oxalate, barium, copper, lead, silver or thallium azides, or silver acetylide) accelerates the rate of thermal decomposition. Possible mechanisms are discussed. 

Many of the 3-hydroxytriazene derivatives produced by diazo-coupling onto N-alkyl or A-aryl hydroxylamines decompose explosively above their m.p.s. However, the heavy metal derivatives are stable and used in analytical chemistry.
