The Rh(III)-catalyzed C-H functionalization and subsequent intramolecular cyclization between azobenzenes and vinylene carbonate is described herein. Depending on the electronic property of azobenzenes, this transformation results in the formation of (2H)-indazoles or dihydrocinnolin-4-ones through the generation of ortho-alkylated azo-intermediates followed by decarboxylation. Surprisingly, vinylene carbonate acts as an acetaldehyde or acetyl surrogate to enable the [4 + 1] or [4 + 2] annulation reaction. This transformation is characterized by its mild re
