The invention provides a highly-efficient synthetic method for 2, 6-dimethoxy-4-vinylphenol. The method comprises the following steps: with sinapic acid as a raw material and alumina as a solid-phase carrier, carrying out thermal decarboxylation in the presence of an alkaline catalyst under a microwave-assisted condition, adding a polymerization inhibitor to reduce and prevent polymerization of synthetic products, neutralizing the alkaline catalyst in the reaction system when the reaction is completed, extracting the synthetic products with an organic solvent, carrying out washing and drying, then carrying out purifying by using preparative liquid chromatography, and carrying out vacuum drying to obtain high-purity 2, 6-dimethoxy-4-vinylphenol. The highly-efficient synthetic method for 2, 6-dimethoxy-4-vinylphenol provided by the invention has the characteristics of significant improvement of reaction rate, fast temperature rise, convenient operation, high conversion rate, easy purification of the products, etc.; and the synthesized 2, 6-dimethoxy-4-vinylphenol has the properties of high purity, strong oxidation resistance, etc.
