The invention discloses a benzofuran-containing organic iridium complex and a preparation method thereof, and a photoelectric device, and belongs to the technical field of luminescent materials, the structural general formula of the organic iridium complex is shown in the specification, in the formula, R1 and R2 are respectively independently represented as mono-, di- or non-substituent group; R3and R4 are independently represented as mono-, di-, tri-, tetra- or non-substituent; R5, R6 and R7 each independently represent a single substituent or no substituent; and R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6 and R7 are each independently at least one of hydrogen, deuterium, halogen, cyano, substituted or unsubstituted C1-C8 alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted C3-C15 cycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted C6-C18 aryl, and substituted or unsubstituted C4-C12 aromatic heterocyclic groups. The organic iridium complex can significantly reduce the driving voltage of the photoelectric device, significantly improve the current efficiency and power efficiency of the photoelectric device and prolong the service life of the photoelectric device.
