The Ad S/CFT correspondence has provided us a useful approach to describe strongly interacting systems holographically through weakly coupled gravitational duals. One of the mostly studied gravity duals is the holographic superconductor, which is constructed by a scalar field coupled to a Maxwell field in an Ad S black hole background. It is shown that when the Hawking temperature of a black hole drops below a critical value, the black hole becomes unstable and this instability in the（d ＋ 1） dimensional Ad S black hole corresponds to a d-dimensional phase transition at the boundary, called holographic superconductor model. Generally speaking, the instability of the gravity systems belongs to the second-order phase transition. Lately, it was stated that the holographic superconductor with the spontaneous breaking of a global U（1） symmetry via the Stückelberg mechanism allows the first-order phase transition to occur.Some further studies are carried out by considering new forms of the Stückelberg mechanism. So it is very interesting to extend the discussion to other new forms of Stückelberg mechanism to explore the rich properties of holographic superconductors. By considering new higher correction terms of the scalar fields, we investigate a general class of holographic superconductors via Stückelberg mechanism in the background of four-dimensional Ad S black hole. We obtain richer structures in the metal/superconductor phase transitions. We study the condensation of the scalar operator and find that when the model parameter is above a threshold value, this new model allows first-order phase transition to occur.We also examine the effects of the backreaction on the threshold model parameter and find that backreaction makes the first-order phase transitions easier to happen（or smaller threshold parameters above which the phase transition changes from second to first order）. We may conclude that the model parameter coupled with the backreaction can determine the order of phase transitions.
