Wilkinson’s catalyst is the square planar chloro tris(triphenylphosphine) rhodium(I) complex. This molecule is actually a precatalyst that becomes the actual catalyst when it statistically loses a triphenylphosphine ligand producing chloro bis(triphenylphosphine) rhodium(I).

Hence option 2 is correct.
