For almost as long as catalysts have been part of industrial chemical processes, there has been a parallel effort to understand how catalysis works at a molecular level. Pioneers such as Michel Boudart, to whom this Mini-Review is dedicated, realized that such a goal requires the ability to probe catalytic systems eitherin situunder realistic environments or inoperandomode as the catalytic processes occur. Much has happened since, and a number of spectroscopies are now available for this purpose. Here we reference the most salient ones, including vibrational spectroscopies such as infrared absorption, Raman, and other non-linear optical arrangements, X-ray absorption, and NMR. We also introduce some surface-sensitive probes used for studies with model catalytic systems. For each of these techniques, we briefly discuss their advantages and disadvantages, and illustrate their use with a couple of recent examples from the literature.
