Diaryl Chalcogenides (i.e. Ar 2 E where Ar = 4-CH 3 C 6 H 4 , 4-BrC 6 H 4 , E= S, Se and Te) were reacted with [RhCl(CO) 2 ] 2 and rhodium(III) chloride trihydrate to give compounds of type [RhCl(CO) 2 (Ar 2 E)] and [RhCl 3 (Ar 2 E) 3 ], respectively. All compounds were characterized by IR, NMR, and mass spectroscopic data. Attempts to prepare hydroxyapatite (HAp) supported rhodium catalyst by using different methods were unsuccessful. Complexes [RhCl(CO) 2 ((4-R-C 6 H 4 ) 2 S)], [RhCl(CO) 2 ((4-R-C 6 H 4 ) 2 Se)] and [RhCl(CO) 2 ((4-R-C 6 H 4 ) 2 Te), where R= CH 3 or Br], were evaluated as catalysts for hydrosilylation of allyl phenyl ether and 1-decene. They showed good catalytic activities for hydrosilylation of alkenes with triethoxysilane.
