One-Pot Protocol to Functionalized Benzopyrrolizidine Catalyzed Successively by Rh₂(OAc)₄ and Cu(OTf)₂: A Transition Metal–Lewis Acid Catalysis Relay

4-<i>N</i>-Allylarylpropylamino-1-sulfonyl triazoles are converted to structurally unique benzopyrrolizidinyl sulfonamides in a one-pot operation. Intramolecular capture of rhodium carbene with arylamino nitrogen gives rise to the formation of an ammonium ylide immediate. A [2,3]- or [1,2]-rearrangement occurs to give a 2-allylpyrrolidinyl-2-carbimine intermediate which undergoes Cu­(OTf)₂ catalyzed aza-Friedel–Crafts cyclization to finish a highly functionalized tricyclic system decorated with a synthetically difficult quaternary carbon center, a sulfonamide group, and an allyl segment
