The invention discloses a synthesis method of 5-Methoxy-1-[4-(trifluoromethyl) phenyl]-1-pentanone. Firstly, parts of solvent are steamed out after magnesium chips and solvent are put in according to proportioning; then, 1-chloro-4-methoxy butane is added to react for synthesizing 4-methoxyl butyl magnesiumchloride; 4-trifluoromethylbenzonitrile according to proportioning is added into the 4-methoxyl butyl magnesiumchloride solution obtained in the last step to react; after reaction ends, solid products are obtained after filtering, pH value adjustment, organic phase washing by water, and solventsteaming out; then the obtained solid products after solvent is steamed out are decompressed and rectified to obtain the finished product of 5-Methoxy-1-[4-(trifluoromethyl) phenyl]-1-pentanone; the raw materials are as follows according to proportioning: 1.2-1.3 of magnesium chip, 1.1-1.2 of 1-chloro-4-methoxy butane and 1 of 4-trifluoromethyl benzonitrile. The method can obviously lower the consumption amount of the raw material, and the yield can be improved to above 80%.
