The invention provides a method for preparing nitrile by reacting acetone cyanohydrin with haloalkane. According to the invention, by using acetone cyanohydrin as a cyaniding reagent, the problems, such as long reaction time, low yield, strict reaction conditions and the like enchanted in an existing preparation method in which highly toxic sodium cyanide or potassium cyanide or expensive trimethylsilyl cyanide is used as a cyanogen source, are solved. The method comprises the following steps: dissolving acetone cyanohydrin in a mixed solvent of a high boiling point dipolar aprotic solvent anda low boiling point aprotic solvent, adding a catalyst lithium hydroxide, stirring at 25-50 DEG C for one hour and then adding a haloalkane for continuous reaction for 2-3 hours; next, adding saturated saline water for washing twice, separating out an organic layer, and boiling off the solvent after drying, thereby obtaining a nitrile compound. The method for preparing a nitrile compound disclosed in the invention is characterized by low reaction toxicity, simple process, easy of operation, low production cost, and a yield of more than 95%.
