A Correct answer
Explanation

(PPh3)3RhCl is Wilkinson’s catalyst and catalyzes the hydrogenation of alkenes, CrO3.2C5H5N is called Collins reagent and is a useful reagent for oxidation of alcohols containing acid-sensitive functional groups, PdCl4 is Wacker catalyst. The Wacker process originally referred to the oxidation of ethylene to acetaldehyde by oxygen in water in the presence of a tetrachloropalladate catalyst. Al(C2H5)3/ TiCl4 is Ziegler-Natta catalyst. It is used as a catalyst in the synthesis of polymers of alpha-alkenes. Hence, the correct answer is A - 2, B - 1, C - 4, D - 3.
