Wilkinson's catalyst is chloridotris(triphenylphosphane)rhodium(I). It is a rouge-colored solid that is soluble in hydrocarbon solvents such as benzene and more so in tetrahydrofuran or chlorinated solvents such as dichloromethane. The compound is widely used as a catalyst for hydrogenation of alkenes. It is named after chemist and Nobel Laureate, Sir Geoffrey Wilkinson, who first popularized its use.
Chemical formula: C54H45ClP3Rh
