The copper‐catalyzed cycloisomerization of thioalkynyl ketones 1 a and thioalkynyl imines 1 b allows the efficient synthesis of 3‐thio‐substituted furans 3 a and pyrroles 3 b , an important class of heterocyclic unit previously inaccessible by standard cycloisomerization techniques. A plausible mechanism for this unusual cascade involves a 1,2‐migration of the thio group in the intermediate keto‐ and iminoallenyl sulfides 2 . DMA= N,N ‐dimethylacetamide.
