Copper‐catalyzed one‐pot conversion of thiols to olefins was conducted under aerobic conditions. Thiols were oxidized to generate thioaldehydes, which reacted with sulfones or phosphorous ylides to form the corresponding olefins. The formation of thiosulfonates and phosphorous sulfides confirms that these olefination protocols proceed via thioaldehyde‐sulfone and thioaldehyde‐ylide adducts.
