The rate and selectivity found for the hydrogenation reaction of soybean oil using a series of soluble rhodium and iridium‐phosphine complexes can be correlated to the number of phosphine ligands coordinated to the metal. This study shows the possibility of obtaining a wide range of products by varying the reaction time and the catalyst composition. For example, a low stearate content can be obtained using IrCl(C 8 H 12 )PPh 3 , whereas a low double‐bond conjugation can be obtained with |Rh(C 8 H 12 )(PPh 3 ) 2 |BPh 4 .
