The　photocatalytic　coupling　reaction　can　be　conducted　in　one　pot　to　realize　the　simultaneous　utilization　of　electrons　and　holes,　thereby　obtaining　value-added　fine　chemicals　and　fuels.　Herein,　we　report　a　binary　nickel　modified　ZnIn2S4　(Ni:ZIS)　for　highly　efficient　photocatalytic　selective　oxidation　of　benzyl　alcohol　(BA)　to　benzaldehyde　(BAD)　integrated　with　hydrogen　(H-2)　evolution,　in　which　Ni　can　promote　photogenerated　charge　transfer　for　enhancing　photoactivity.　Particularly,　the　products　of　converting　BA　to　aromatic　compounds　over　blank　ZnIn2S4　(ZIS)　and　Ni:ZIS　show　a　marked　difference　under　the　same　reaction　conditions.　Hydrobenzoin　(HB)　is　the　primary　product　over　blank　ZIS.　After　the　introduction　of　Ni,　the　formation　of　HB　is　dramatically　suppressed,　resulting　in　higher　selectivity　of　BAD,　because　the　introduction　of　Ni　facilitates　the　alpha-H　abstraction.　In　addition,　an　analogous　phenomenon　has　been　observed　on　Ni-based　compounds　modified　ZIS,　such　as　NixP　and　NiS.　It　is　hoped　that　this　work　would　provide　a　feasible　paradigm　for　modifying　the　surface　of　photocatalysts　to　tune　the　selectivity　of　product-oriented　alcohols　oxidation　coupled　with　H-2　evolution　in　water.
