The invention relates to a method for synthesizing albendazole. The method comprises the following steps of: (a) adding carbendazim, sodium sulfocyanate and glacial acetic acid to a reactor, dropwise adding 28% hydrogen peroxide while controlling the temperature to be 25-40 DEG C, carrying out heat preservation and reaction for 4-6 hours after the dropwise adding process is completed, and obtaining thiocyanide after glacial acetic acid is recovered through negative-pressure distillation; and (b) adding 20% aqueous potassium hydroxide solution to the thiocyanide while adding benzyltriethylammonium chloride, then dropwise adding 1-bromopropane, and reacting for 4-8 hours while controlling the temperature to be 45-60 DEG C, thereby obtaining the albendazole. According to the method, the potential safety hazard caused by the fact that a highly toxic substance, namely chlorine gas, is used for preparing albendazole is avoided successfully, and the influence on the quality and yield of the product, caused by side reactions resulting from the adoption of the chlorine gas, is eliminated successfully, so that the quality and yield of an intermediate are improved greatly; meanwhile, the adoption of alkali sulfide is cancelled, and then, the environmental pollution caused by a byproduct, namely thioether, produced due to excessive alkali sulfide is avoided, so that the method is perfectly suitable for industrial production; and furthermore, all the raw materials are low in cost and are purchased easily, and the operation is safe.
