The invention discloses a preparation method of
copper nanocluster photocatalysts with different atomic accuracies in the technical field of
photocatalysis, which comprises the following steps: firstly, respectively synthesizing two
copper nanoclusters NCs, taking cuprous
bromide as a
raw material, reacting with 4-mercaptobenzoic acid and 2-chloro-4-fluorothiophenol, reducing by
sodium borohydride, recrystallizing to prepare Cu13 NCs, and preparing the Cu13 NCs into
copper nanoclusters with different atomic accuracies. The preparation method comprises the following steps: firstly, preparing Cu13 NCs, reacting Cu13 NCs with diphenyl-2-
pyridine phosphine, reacting
tetrafluoroborate (
acetonitrile) copper with diphenyl-2-
pyridine phosphine and
cyclohexanol, reducing, recrystallizing to obtain Cu28 NCs, secondly, preparing bulk-phase
black phosphorus (BP) through high-temperature
calcination of red
phosphorus,
tin powder and
iodine elementary substance,
grinding, ultrasonically stripping and freeze-
drying to obtain BP nanosheets, and finally, respectively dissolving Cu13 NCs and Cu28 NCs in
dichloromethane, respectively mixing with a BP solution, and carrying out
vacuum drying to obtain the Cu13 NCs / Cu28 NCs
composite material. The
metal cluster photocatalyst prepared by the preparation method disclosed by the invention is excellent and stable in photocatalytic reduction performance, and the Cu13 NCs / BP and Cu28 NCs / BP composite materials are finally prepared through ultrasonic treatment and
freeze drying.
