The invention provides a chemical synthetic method for beta-arbutin, which includes: 1) performing a reaction to pentaacetyl-beta-D-glucose with a 70% hydrofluoric acid pyridine solution at 10-30 DEGC to obtain tetraacetyl-alpha-fluoroglucose; 2) performing a reaction to the tetraacetyl-alpha-fluoroglucose with p-hydroxyacetophenone in a mixed solvent under catalysis of tetrabutylammonium bromidewith Ca(OH)2 being an accelerant at 20-30 DEG C to prepare p-acetylphenyl-2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside; 3) performing a reaction to the p-acetylphenyl-2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside with 40% peroxyacetic acid in an organic solvent at 5-20 DEG C to obtain p-acetoxylphenyl-2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside; 4) performing a reaction to the p-acetoxylphenyl-2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside at 15-25 DEG C in the presence of anhydrous methanol-sodium methoxide to obtain the beta-arbutin. The method is high in yield, low in cost, gentle in conditions and less in emission of waste liquid, waste gas and waste solids, and is suitable for industrial production.
