ASMR Catalytic cycle of hydrogenation of alkenes by Wilkinson's Catalyst

I take you through the catalytic cycle of Wilkinson’s catalyst, RhCl(Ph3)3, that hydrogenates alkenes in the presence of hydrogen gas. Lots of structural changes and a lovely example of organometallic chemistry in action! Want more ASMR Chemistry?
