The (Z)/(E) ratio was analyzed for the 3-hexyne semi-hydrogenation at 275, 290 and 303 K. [RhCl(NH2 (CH2)12CH3)3] pure and supported on a carbonaceous material were used as catalysts. The supported complex showed high values of conversion and selectivity, and its behaviour was much better than the Lindlar catalyst used as a reference.
