Rhodium vinylidene intermediates are characteristic for the title reaction (see scheme; coe=cyclooctene, cy=cyclohexyl). This reaction proceeds by the nucleophilic addition of the nitrogen atom of the imine to the rhodium vinylidene complex to give a zwitterionic intermediate, which undergoes intramolecular cyclization to afford the corresponding pyrrole.
