Exploring the structural evolution of clusters with similar sizes and atom numbers induced by the removal or addition of a few atoms contributes to a deep understanding of structure–property relationships. Herein, three well-characterized copper-hydride nanoclusters that provide insight into the surface-vacancy-defect to non-defect structural evolution were reported. A surface-defective copper hydride nanocluster [Cu28(S-c-C6H11)18(PPh2Py)3H8]2+ (Cu28-PPh2Py for short) with only one C1 symmetry axis was synthesized using a one-pot method under mild conditions, and its structure was determined. Through ligand regulation, a 29th copper atom was inserted into the surface vacancy site to give two non-defective copper hydride nanoclusters, namely [Cu29(SAdm)15Cl3(P(Ph-Cl)3)4H10]+ (Cu29-P(Ph-Cl)3 for short) with one C3 symmetry axis and (Cu29(S-c-C6H11)18(P(Ph-pMe)3)4H10)+ (Cu29-P(Ph-Me)3 for short) with four C3 symmetry axes. The optimized structures show that the 10 hydrides cap four triangular and all six square-planar structures of the cuboctahedral Cu13 core of Cu29-P(Ph-Me)3, while the 10 hydrides cap four triangular and six square-planar structures of the anti-cuboctahedral Cu13 core of Cu29-P(Ph-Cl)3, with the eight hydrides in Cu28-PPh2Py capping four triangular and four square planar-structures of its anti-cuboctahedral Cu13 core. Cluster stability was found to increase sequentially from Cu28-PPh2Py to Cu29-P(Ph-Cl)3 and then to Cu29-P(Ph-Me)3, which indicates that stability is affected by the overall structure of the cluster. Structural adjustments to the metal core, shell, and core–shell bonding model, in moving from Cu28-PPh2Py to Cu29-P(Ph-Cl)3 and then to Cu29-P(Ph-Me)3, enable the structural evolution and mechanism responsible for their physicochemical properties to be understood and provide valuable insight into the structures of surface vacancies in copper nanoclusters and structure–property relationships. Structural adjustments in moving from surface-vacancy-defect Cu28-PPh2Py to non-defect Cu29-P(Ph-Cl)3 and Cu29-P(Ph-Me)3 provide valuable insight into the structures of surface vacancies in copper nanoclusters and structure–property relationships.
