Wilkinson's catalyst is the common name for chlorotris(triphenylphosphine)rhodium(I), a coordination compound with the formula RhCl(PPh3)3 (Ph = phenyl). It is named after the chemist and Nobel Laureate, Sir Geoffrey Wilkinson who popularized its use. Wilkinson’s catalyst is a homogeneous organometallic catalyst, RhCl(PPh3)3, which catalyzes the hydrogenation of olefins. Catalytic processes can be categorized into two groups: 1) homogeneous catalysis which is a process where the catalysts and reactants remain in the same phase; and 2) heterogeneous catalysis which defines as where the reactants and catalysts are in different phases. The catalytic discovery was made independently by Wilkinson and Coffey in 1964. Wilkinson completely explored the scope, selectivity, and mechanism of the complex which catalyzes the hydrogenation of olefins. This compound is now commonly referred to as “Wilkinson’s catalyst".
