The invention provides a method for preparing alclometasone dipropionate by using an etherified intermediate. According to the method, the etherified intermediate 3-vinyl alcohol ether-16a-methyl-17a,21-bipropionyloxy-pregna-3,5-diene-7,11,20-triketone serves as the raw material and is reduced with 7-site and 11-site diketone and subjected to three reactions including acid hydrolysis deprotection,1-site DDQ dehydrogenation and 7-site chlorine substitution, and then alclometasone dipropionate is synthesized. According to the method, the etherified intermediate 3-vinyl alcohol ether-16a-methyl-17a,21-bipropionyloxy-pregna-3,5-diene-7,11,20-triketone serves as the raw material, alclometasone dipropionate is synthesized through three steps of reactions, compared with a traditional method using de-fluorated dexamethasone acetate as the raw material, the technology has the advantages that a synthetic route is short, the process is economical and environmentally friendly, the production operation is simple and convenient and the product yield is high; solvents used during production can be recycled, and industrial production is easy to implement.
