An efficient synthesis of alkyl ethers has been developed for o-deactivated aryl halides and 1-halotetralenes. The method shows good regioselectivity towards ortho substituted halides. Alkali metal carbonates (Li2CO3/Na2CO3/K2CO3/Cs2CO3) have been used without a transition metal co-catalyst and ligand. The method is simple, straight-forward and proceeds to afford products in good isolated yields. The method holds potential for future applications in organic synthesis. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd.
