Rhodium(III) iodide is employed as a catalyst precursor in organic synthesis, particularly for C-C bond-forming reactions. Researchers utilize it in homogeneous catalysis systems due to its oxidative stability and electron-deficient rhodium center. It also finds niche applications in materials science for the deposition of rhodium-containing thin films via chemical vapor transport.
