The invention discloses a preparation method of a mild diazomethane derivative. The preparation method comprises that EWG-substituted benzene sulfonyl chloride and hydrazine hydrate undergo a reaction to produce EWG-substituted benzene sulfonyl chloride, the EWG-substituted benzene sulfonyl chloride and aldehyde or ketone undergo a reaction to produce EWG-substituted benzenesulfonylhydrazone, and the EWG-substituted benzenesulfonylhydrazone, a base and an organic solvent are mixed and undergo a replacement reaction to produce a diazomethane derivative. The diazomethane derivative is not separated and purified and is further used for a tension small ring synthesis reaction and an insertion reaction. The benzene ring of benzenesulfonylhydrazone is introduced with an electron-withdrawing group EWG, and through electron effects and steric hindrance effects, the benzenesulfonyl group on the benzenesulfonylhydrazone is easily separated so that a diazomethane derivative is produced under very mild conditions and especially at the room temperature.
