	Graphical abstract



	Primary and secondary silylated alcohols are easily and rapidly converted to bis(methoxyphenyl)methyl (BMPM) ethers in good yields using CuBr2\&nbsp;as catalyst in acetonitrile at room temperature. Various other protecting groups are compatible with this mild and convenient process.
