CuI N‐heterocycle thiolate clusters efficiently catalyze the acceptorless dehydrogenation of alcohols at 70 °C. A variety of secondary/primary benzylic, allylic, and aliphatic alcohols are dehydrogenated to the corresponding ketones and aldehydes in high yields of isolated product upon release of H2. This simple catalytic system is involved in the synthesis of imines through the one‐pot reaction of alcohols and amines.
