The invention relates to a method for synthesizing Sulfentrazone. The method is characterized by comprising the steps of liberating o-chlorophenylhydrazine from o-chlorophenylhydrazine hydrochloride, which serves as a raw material, by an alkali, subjecting o-chlorophenylhydrazine to a reaction with trimethyl orthoacetate and potassium cyanate so as to obtain 1-o-chlorophenyl-3-methyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-one, and then, subjecting 1-o-chlorophenyl-3-methyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-one to N-alkylation, chlorination, nitration, reduction and sulfonylation, thereby obtaining the Sulfentrazone, wherein a composite catalyst and a solvent, i.e., dichloroethane are adopted in a chlorination reaction. The method for synthesizing the Sulfentrazone, disclosed by the invention, has the advantages that the o-chlorophenylhydrazine hydrochloride serves as the raw material, so that the steric hindrance of an intermediate product can be low, and the yield of the product is increased; and meanwhile, in the chlorination reaction, the composite catalyst is adopted, thus, the orientation effect on all atoms is good, and the solvent is dichloroethane, so that the recycling of the solvent is facilitated.
