Rhodium(III) chloride refers to inorganic compounds with the formula RhCl3(H2O)n, where n varies from 0 to 3. These are diamagnetic solids featuring octahedral Rh(III) centres. Depending on the value of n, the material is either a dense brown solid or a soluble reddish salt. The soluble salt is widely used to prepare compounds used in homogeneous catalysis.
Anhydrous rhodium chloride crystallises with a monoclinic crystal structure, same as in YCl3 or AlCl3.It is a dense brown solid that is insoluble in common solvents and of little value in the laboratory.
