The invention discloses a method for preparing a main intermediate of dabigatran etexilate through enzymatic reaction. The main steps are as follows: first, 3-[4-methylamino-3-amino-N-(2-pyridyl)-benzamido]-ethyl acrylate and 2-(4-cyano aniline) acetic acid are added in a reaction solvent, mixed and dissolved; immobilized enzyme Novozym 435 is added and reaction is carried out; second, after the reaction is finished, the immobilized enzyme Novozym 435 is removed through filtration, an organic phase layer and a filtrate are obtained; third, the obtained organic layer is subjected to solvent evaporation, and an oil-like substances are obtained, acetic acid is added and a reflux reaction is carried out; fourth, after the reaction is finished, acetic acid is evaporated, ethyl acetate and an alkaline solution are added, washing and extraction are carried out, the obtained organic layer is subjected to drying by distillation, and 3-[[[2-[[(4-cyano phenyl)amino] methyl]-1-methyl-1H-benzimidazole-5-group] carbonyl] pyridine-2-group amino] ethyl propionate ethyl ester. The method has simple operations and mild reaction conditions, the product with high purity is easy to obtain, the yield is high and the method is suitable for industrial amplification production.
