The upgrading of methane into C 2 –C 6 hydrocarbons could prove a valuable alternative to oil as a source of platform chemicals. In their Communication on page 5215 ff., A. M. Beale, B. M. Weckhuysen et al. describe how a combination of operando X‐ray methods and fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy has been brought to bear on the well‐known Mo‐ZSM‐5 zeolite to provide a detailed understanding of how the Mo site evolves during the catalytic conversion of methane and how this influences the reaction products.
