The invention discloses synthesis of 2-N-methylaminomethyl-5-N-methylaminomethyl furan, and relates to the field of synthesis method of organic compounds. According to the synthesis method, 5-hydroxymethyl furfural, organic amine, and a formic acid water solution are mixed in a reactor; the mixture is heated to carry out reactions, after reactions, rotation evaporation is performed to remove the solvent to obtain a solution A; adding a NaOH solution into the solution A, adjusting the pH of the solution until pH is not less than 10 to obtain a solution B; extracting the solution B by ethyl acetate, merging extracting agents, carrying out reduced pressure distillation to recover the extracting agent namely ethyl acetate to obtain a solution C; and subjecting the solution C to reduced pressure distillation to obtain 2-N-methylaminomethyl-5-N-methylaminomethyl furan. The purity of obtained 2-N-methylaminomethyl-5-N-methylaminomethyl furan is more than 99%. HMF and organic amine are taken as the raw materials, a formic acid water solution is taken as the reaction solution, and 2-N-methylaminomethyl-5-N-methylaminomethyl furan is prepared by a one-pot method. The operation is simple, thereaction system is green and environmentally friendly, the reaction solvent can be repeatedly used, the feed concentration is large, and the yield is high.
