Active phase of a catalyst : Using the 3D structural characterization of the environment around Mo atoms provided by X‐ray absorption near‐edge structure spectroscopy (left; spectrum of the Mo K  edge) and DFT calculations, the molecular‐scale structure of a TiO 2 ‐supported molybdenum oxide catalyst was defined. The structure consists of Mo octahedra arranged in a six‐membered ring.
