Differently substituted 4‐(1,3‐dithiolan‐2‐ylidene)but‐1‐ynes were conveniently converted into the corresponding thiophenes and dihydrothiophenes in good to high yields under mild conditions. 1,3‐Dithiolan‐2‐ylidene acted as a masked thiolate anion and underwent tandem fragmentation and 5‐ exo ‐ dig annulation with an alkyne moiety to form the five‐membered sulfur heterocycles.
