Normalized line emission of select species. Top: Radial profiles of hydrocarbons and CO. We observe a multiple peak structure within the gas gap. Bottom: Radial profiles of nitriles in AS 209. They peak close to 25 au, one of the inner continuum-emission rings. The black shaded area represents the CO ice line in the midplane.
