Diazomethane reacts with water, releasing nitrogen. It is more stable in ether or dioxane ("Diazomethane", International Chemical Safety Card 1256, International Programme on Chemical Safety, 1995.

Addition of water to sodium azide which had been heated caused a violent reaction. This was attributed to the formation of sodium nitride or metallic sodium (Anon., Angew. Chem., 1952, 64, 169).
Potential Gas Byproducts
