Only little waste: Aryl ether formation is accomplished by oxidative condensation of alcohols and 2‐cyclohexenones. The reaction complements the existing methods used by synthetic chemists to obtain aryl ethers, and allows a straightforward access to a wide range of functionalized products. In addition, the catalytic reaction with O2 as the oxidant generates water as the only by‐product and provides
