Iodorhodium(III) Tetraphenylporphyrin is readily prepared from the commerically available tetraphenylporphyrin and  Tetracarbonyl(di-μ-chloro)dirhodium using a modification of Callot's method. The initially formed RhI species is oxidized to RhIII using Iodine or N-Iodosuccinimide.

Not air or moisture sensitive. For prolonged storage, the reagent should  be protected from light. Toxicity has not been thoroughly investigated.
