The invention discloses a 2, 3, 3', 4, 4', 5'-hexahydroxy benzophenone bismuth (III) and copper (II) binuclear complex and a preparation method thereof. The components of the 2, 3, 3', 4, 4', 5'-hexahydroxy benzophenone bismuth (III) and copper (II) binuclear complex are Cu2+, Bi3+ and 2, 3, 3', 4, 4', 5'-hexahydroxy benzophenone, and the weight proportions are as follows: 33-40 percent of Cu2+ and Bi3+ (wherein 6-23 percent of Cu2+ and 77-94 percent of Bi3+) and 60-67 percent of the 2, 3, 3', 4, 4', 5'-hexahydroxy benzophenone. The preparation method is as follows: taking gallic acid, pyrogallic acid and POC13 as raw materials, taking anhydrous ZnCl2 as catalyst and reacting under heating and stirring to obtain the 2, 3, 3', 4, 4', 5'-pentahydroxy benzophenone. The 2, 3, 3', 4, 4', 5'-hexahydroxy benzophenone is mixed with soluble copper salt and bismuth salt solution, and then the product is prepared after the working procedures of stirring, heating reflux, standing, washing, filtering and the like. As combustion catalyst, the prepared 2, 3, 3', 4, 4', 5'-hexahydroxy benzophenone bismuth (III) and copper (II) binuclear complex has very high catalytic effect for combustion of double-base or modified double-base propellant and is environmental-friendly high-efficient combustion catalyst.
