The reductive etherification of aldehydes can be performed by the reaction with dialkylmethylsilanes in the presence of new iron(II) piano-stool catalysts of general formula Cp*Fe(CO)2Ar (Cp * = η5-C5Me5; Ar = Ph, 4-C6H4OCH3, 4-C6H4CH 3, Fc). This transformation is promoted by UV light and affords a simple route for the preparation of unsymmetrical alkyl ethers.
A convenient synthesis of methyl- and isopropyl-benzyl ethers using silver(II) oxide as reagent
Ortiz,Walls,Yuste,Barrios,Sanchez-Obregon,Pinelo
, p. 749 - 756 (2007/10/02)
Substituted bromomethyl- and chloromethylbenzenes and bis(bromomethyl) benzenes were directly converted, in high yields, to the corresponding methyl- and isopropyl-benzyl ethers by treatment with silver(II) oxide in methanol or isopropanol.

The reaction of aryl bromides with methoxymethyltributyltin in the presence of a catalytic amount of dichlorobis(triphenylphosphine)palladium was found to give arylmethyl methyl ether.The reaction is a novel aromatic methoxymethylation.
