Description
It was put on the armament of special services because it is very convenient to use and virtually undetectable for detection later. First, iron pentacarbonyl easily dissolves in alcoholic solutions without decomposition, which is important because many poisons can only be used with water or with juice. It looks like a pale yellow liquid, slightly more dense than water, which dissolves quietly in anything and can be drunk elementally. “It doesn’t taste at all.” That is, to poison a person, it is enough to give a poisoned bottle of wine or put mineral water. This poison is just perfect: odorless, almost colorless, death is more than likely and the symptoms are very similar to carbon monoxide poisoning. But most importantly, a person poisoned to death with iron pentacarbonyl is almost impossible to distinguish from a person suffocated by carbon monoxide. And it’s impossible to prove that poisoning occurred by blood composition.
Two grams of pentacarbonyl is enough to poison to death, the lethal dose of this poison is 17 milligrams per kilogram of live weight. If two grams of the compound are dissolved in a liter of any liquid, death occurs within two hours, and a person loses consciousness instantly, much faster than from the action of carbon monoxide. Also in the parcel you will receive instructions on how to use this poison correctly (in English).
