Using aliases in my WSL command line

I'm trying to launch Atom text editor from my WSL bash.exe. I found this manual

And did exactly as it advises, but it doesn't work. I also find in .bashrc file this comment:

# Alias definitions.
# You may want to put all your additions into a separate file like
# ~/.bash_aliases, instead of adding them here directly.
# See /usr/share/doc/bash-doc/examples in the bash-doc package.

Then I created file .bash_aliases and added this command in it

alias atom=’/mnt/c/Windows/System32/cmd.exe /c “atom”’

In both cases the call of the atom alias produces this output:

    grep: /etc/wsl.conf: No such file or directory
net.js:200
    this._handle.open(options.fd);
                 ^
