N2 - Invited for this month's cover is the group of Bert M. Weckhuysen at the Utrecht University (The Netherlands). The cover picture shows an attenuated Total Reflection Infrared spectroscopy (ATR-IR) probe monitoring a chemical reaction in the liquid phase, particularly water, at demanding conditions. The light penetrates few microns deep in proximity of the ATR-IR probe and thus any IR-active entity in that range is probed. This research systematically addresses the challenges associated with acquiring operando ATR-IR spectra for liquid/aqueous phase reactions, which is essential for better understanding of chemical reactions in the liquid phase.
