The interaction between flat silver surfaces and carboranethiol derivatives, and its relevance regarding the molecular protection of silver against corrosion by hydrogen sulphide, are reported here. A comparison of the protective qualities of four carboranethiols (1-HS-1,2-C2B10H11, 1,2-(HS)(2)-1,2-C2B10H10, 9,12-(HS)(2)-1,2-C2B10H10, and 1,12-(HS)(2)-1,2-C2B10H10) with several organic thiols (1-butanethiol, 1-octanethiol, 1-dodecanethiol, benzene-1,2-dithiol, benzenethiol, and sodium 2-mercaptoethanesulphonate) is provided. All these derivatives are categorized according to their capacity to inhibit the interaction of silver with H2S in the presence of water molecules in the gas phase. We found that significantly better molecular protection for silver surfaces is afforded by the carboranethiol derivatives, and, of these, 9,12-(HS)(2)-1,2-C2B10H10 proved to be particularly effective.
