The invention discloses a preparation method of 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoroisopropyl methyl ether. In the preparation method, hexafluoroisopropyl alcohol and halogenated methane are taken as raw materials to synthesize the 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoroisopropyl methyl ether under the action of a base catalyst, wherein, the halogenated methane has the following general formula: CH3X, wherein, X is chosen from Cl, Br or I. The preparation method has the advantages of available raw materials and mild preparation process, and is simple in operation; and the obtained 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoroisopropyl methyl ether can be taken as an intermediate to synthesize the methyl fluoride-1,1,1,3,3,3- hexafluoroisopropyl ether.
