  2. B \(\left[\left(\mathrm{PPh}_3\right)_3 \mathrm{RhCl}\right]\)
  3. C \(\left[\left(\mathrm{PPh}_3\right)\left(\mathrm{RhCl}_3\right)\right]\)
  4. D \(\left[\left(\mathrm{PPh}_3\right)_4 \mathrm{RhCl}\right]\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\left[\left(\mathrm{PPh}_3\right)_3 \mathrm{RhCl}\right]\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Wilkinson's catalyst is a coordination complex of rhodium with the formula. \(\left[\mathrm{RhCl}\left(\mathrm{PPh}_3\right)_3\right]\). So, the correct answer is \(\left[\left(\mathrm{PPh}_3\right)_3 \mathrm{RhCl}\right]\).
