The invention belongs to the technical field of acid bright copper plating additives and relates to a PEG coupled heterocyclic compound and application thereof in acid bright copper plating. The PEG coupled heterocyclic compound can be used as a leveling agent and a grain refiner, more importantly, can increase the solubility of a slightly soluble component in a brightener in a water phase, effectively avoid the precipitation of the slightly soluble component, meanwhile, improve the compatibility of the slightly soluble component with other components in the brightener, maintain the balance among the components, and avoid the problem of proportional imbalance caused by overlarge consumption speed difference or partial precipitation of the components; the PEG coupled heterocyclic compound,a polyether surfactant and a dithionate compound are pre-prepared into the brightener to be applied to acid copper plating; and through the synergistic effect of the three compounds, the stability ofan MN type brightener system is improved, and meanwhile, the current density range is widened on the basis that good leveling performance is ensured.
