Abstract
An acidic deep eutectic solvent (DES, choline chloride/citric acid) was used to efficiently extract edible pectin from Premna microphylla Turcz (PMTP) and further prepare the film sensor with the purpose of "four birds with one stone" with the roles of extractant, coalescent, conductivity promoter and bacteriostatic agent. The optimized extraction process accorded with pseudo second-order kinetics, which was carried out at 78.2 °C for 1.29 h with the solid-liquid ratio of 1:34.66 g/mL with the yield up to 0.8210 g/g. After comprehensive characterizations of pectin product, a simple casting method was used to prepare the PMTP-DES based composite film. It showed that the composite film has promising compatibility, smooth surface, good breathability and ideal homogeneity. After 30 power on/power off cycles at 10 V, it exhibited satisfied conductivity stability. Moreover, the PMTP-DES film could be simply assembled as the flexible visual temperature sensor, with sensitive response at breathing or finger touch; it exhibited the highest sensitivity of 134 %/°C when the external temperature changed from 15 to 55 °C. Besides, the composite film also has preferable antimicrobial activity. The whole results and findings were aimed to contribute for the raw material, composition, preparation, and functions of the existing flexible functional materials.

Abstract
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are increasingly being recognized as sustainable and promising solvents because of their unique properties: low melting point, low cost, and biocompatibility. Some DESs possess high viscosity, remarkable stability, and minimal toxicity, enhancing their appeal for diverse applications. Notably, they hold promise in biomass pretreatment, a crucial step in biomass conversion, although their potential in algal biomass carbohydrates extraction remains largely unexplored. Understanding the correlation between DESs' properties and their behavior in carbohydrate extraction, alongside cellulose degradation mechanisms, remains a gap. This review provides an overview of the use of DESs in extracting carbohydrates from lignocellulosic and algal biomass, explores the factors that influence the behavior of DESs in carbohydrate extraction, and sheds light on the mechanism of cellulose degradation by DESs. Additionally, the review discusses potential future developments and applications of DESs, particularly extracting carbohydrates from algal biomass.

Abstract
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are multicomponent designer solvents that exist as stable liquids over a wide range of temperatures. Over the last two decades, research has been dedicated to developing noncytotoxic, biodegradable, and biocompatible DESs to replace commercially available toxic organic solvents. However, most of the DESs formulated until now are hydrophilic and disintegrate via dissolution on coming in contact with the aqueous phase. To expand the repertoire of DESs as green solvents, hydrophobic DESs (HDESs) were prepared as an alternative. The hydrophobicity is a consequence of the constituents and can be modified according to the nature of the application. Due to their immiscibility, HDESs induce phase segregation in an aqueous solution and thus can be utilized as an extracting medium for a multitude of compounds. Here, we review literature reporting the usage of HDESs for the extraction of various organic compounds and metal ions from aqueous solutions and absorption of gases like CO2. We also discuss the techniques currently employed in the extraction processes. We have delineated the limitations that might reduce the applicability of these solvents and also discussed examples of how DESs behave as reaction media. Our review presents the possibility of HDESs being used as substitutes for conventional organic solvents.

Abstract
Residues of oxytetracycline (OTC), a veterinary antibiotic and growth promoter, can be present in animal-derived foods; their consumption is harmful to human health and their presence must therefore be detected and regulated. However, the maximum residue limit is low, and consequently highly sensitive and accurate detectors are required to detect the residues. In this study, a novel highly sensitive electrochemical sensor for the detection of OTC was developed using a screen-printed electrode modified with fluorine-doped activated carbon (F-AC/SPE) combined with a novel deep eutectic solvent (DES). The modification of activated carbon by doping with fluorine atoms (F-AC) enhanced the adsorption and electrical activity of the activated carbon. The novel hydrophobic DES was prepared from tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBABr) and a fatty acid (malonic acid) using a green synthesis method. The addition of the DES increased the electrochemical response of F-AC for OTC detection; furthermore, it induced preconcentration of OTC, which increased its detectability. The electrostatic interactions between DES and OTC as well as the adsorption of OTC on the surface of the modified electrode through H-bonding and π-π interactions helped in OTC detection, which was quantified based on the decrease in the anodic peak potential (E pa = 0.3 V) of AC. The electrochemical behavior of the modified electrode was investigated by cyclic voltammetry, differential pulse voltammetry, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Under optimum conditions, the calibration plot of OTC exhibited a linear response in the range 5-1500 μg L-1, with a detection limit of 1.74 μg L-1. The fabricated electrochemical sensor was successfully applied to determine the OTC in shrimp pond and shrimp samples with recoveries of 83.8-100.5% and 93.3-104.5%, respectively. In addition to the high sensitivity of OTC detection, the proposed electrochemical sensor is simple, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly.

Abstract
In recent years, the linear economic model and global warming have shown that it is necessary to move toward a circular economic model. In this scenario, the recycling of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) with green processes is one of the pending tasks; thus, in the present review, advances in the solid–liquid and liquid–liquid extraction processes, processes among the most important for the recovery of metals from ores or WEEE, with green solvents such as deep eutectic solvents (DES) are presented and analyzed, identifying the present and future challenges. To date, most articles focused on one of the processes, be it solid–liquid or liquid–liquid extraction, while few reports included the entire hydrometallurgical process, which could be due to heterogeneity of the WEEE, a characteristic that influences determining the leaching kinetic and the leaching mechanisms. A deeper understanding of the phenomenon would help improve this process and the next stage of liquid–liquid extraction. This also leads to the fact that, at the liquid–liquid extraction stage, most articles considered synthetic pregnant leach solutions to evaluate each of the variables, whereas the stripping of the ions and the recycling of the DESs in continuous processes is a challenge that should be addressed in future work. From the analysis, for WEEE leaching, it was identified that acid DESs are those achieving the best extraction percentages in the leaching of copper, lithium, and cobalt, among others, where the most studied hydrogen bond acceptor (HBA) is choline chloride with an acid (e.g., citric or lactic acid) as the hydrogen bond donor (HBD). For the liquid–liquid extraction of ions is a greater variety of HBAs (e.g., lidocaine, trioctylphosphine oxide and triphenyl phosphate) and HBDs (e.g., decanoic acid, thenoyltrifluoroacetone, and benzoyltrifluoroacetone) used; however, studies on the extraction of cobalt, lithium, copper, and nickel stand out, where the pH and temperature parameters have great influence.

Abstract
The present study reports the synthesis and characterization of hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents (HDES) based on fatty acids and tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) or 1-octanol using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and the analysis of the physicochemical properties (viscosity, density, electrical conductivity, and water content) of these solvents. A carbon paste electrode modified with 6.0% (m/m) decanoic acid and TBAB-based HDES was characterized by cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. The oxidation peak currents of the proposed electrode were enhanced by its high electrochemical activity, fast electron transfer rate, and high surface area, while a remarkable decrease was observed in the peak potential separation. The electrochemical determination of hydroquinone (H2Q) was carried out using square-wave adsorptive anodic stripping voltammetry (SWAdASV). The electrode response was found to be linear in the H2Q concentration range of 2.5 × 10-6-3.0 × 10-3 mol L-1, with the limit of detection (LOD) of 7.7 × 10-7 mol L-1. The method was successfully applied for H2Q determination in dermatological creams.

Abstract
![]()
Deep eutectic solvents
have quickly attracted the attention of
researchers because they better meet the requirements of green chemistry
and thus have the potential to replace conventional hazardous organic
solvents in some areas. To better understand the nature of these mixtures,
as well as expand the possibilities of their use in different industries,
a detailed examination of their physical properties, such as density,
viscosity, the nature of the interactions between their constituents,
the phase diagrams, depression of their melting point, and interpretation
of these results is necessary. In this work, the mixtures of tetrabutylammonium
bromide (TBAB) and nonanoic acid (NA) in different molar ratios are
theoretically and experimentally investigated by applying a phase
diagram constructed on the basis of differential scanning calorimetry
measurements and COSMO-RS model. Spectral properties are investigated
based on Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and density functional
theory. The observed eutectic point indicates the formation of a DES
in the TBAB−NA system in a 1:2 molar ratio. This is due to
the presence of hydrogen bonds between the carboxyl group from the
NA molecule and the bromine atom from the TBAB molecule. Other eutectic
mixtures are most likely the solutions of TBAB in NA, in which hydrogen
bonds predominate between acid molecules.

Abstract
Abstract4H-Pyrano[3,2-c]coumarin derivatives are an important class of pharmaceutical compounds that are expensive to prepare by previously reported methods. An efficient and green method was developed to obtain these derivatives using the deep eutectic solvent (DES) zinc chloride/acetamide (n:n = 1:4), which acted as both the catalyst and the solvent for the reaction. An aromatic aldehyde, 4-hydroxycoumarin, and cyanoacetate were used as the substrates. The DES, substrate molar ratio, diluent type, temperature, and reaction time were optimized to obtain the 4H-pyrano[3,2-c]coumarin derivatives from a range of aromatic aldehydes in a single step in moderate to high yields and under mild reaction conditions.

Abstract
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) formed by hydrogen bond donors and acceptors are a promising new class of solvents. Both hydrophilic and hydrophobic binary DESs readily absorb water, making them ternary mixtures, and a small water content is always inevitable under ambient conditions. We present a thorough study of a typical hydrophobic DES formed by a 1:2 mole ratio of tetrabutyl ammonium chloride and decanoic acid, focusing on the effects of a low water content caused by absorbed water vapor, using multinuclear NMR techniques, molecular modeling, and several other physicochemical techniques. Already very low water contents cause dynamic nanoscale phase segregation, reduce solvent viscosity and fragility, increase self-diffusion coefficients and conductivity, and enhance local dynamics. Water interferes with the hydrogen-bonding network between the chloride ions and carboxylic acid groups by solvating them, which enhances carboxylic acid self-correlation and ion pair formation between tetrabutyl ammonium and chloride. Simulations show that the component molar ratio can be varied, with an effect on the internal structure. The water-induced changes in the physical properties are beneficial for most prospective applications but water creates an acidic aqueous nanophase with a high halide ion concentration, which may have chemically adverse effects.

Abstract
Water sources are an indispensable resource for human survival. Monitoring the pollution status of the surrounding environment is necessary to protect water sources. Research on the environmental matrix of deep eutectic solvents (DESs) has expanded rapidly because of their high extraction efficiency for various target analytes, controllable synthesis, and versatile structure. Following the synthesis of hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents (HDESs), their application in aqueous matrices broadened greatly. The present review conducted a survey on the pollutant extraction methods based DESs in environmental matrices from two aspects, application methods and matrix types; discussed the potential risk of DESs to the environment and future development trends; and provided some references for researchers to choose DES-based extraction methods for environmental research.

Abstract
![]()
Hydrophobic deep
eutectic solvents (DESs) have recently gained
much attention as water-immiscible solvents for a wide range of applications.
However, very few studies exist in which the hydrophobicity of these
DESs is quantified. In this work, the interfacial properties of hydrophobic
DESs with water were computed at various temperatures using molecular
dynamics simulations. The considered DESs were tetrabutylammonium
chloride–decanoic acid (TBAC–dec) with a molar ratio
of 1:2, thymol–decanoic acid (Thy–dec) with a molar
ratio of 1:2, and dl-menthol–decanoic acid (Men–dec)
with a molar ratio of 2:1. The following properties were investigated
in detail: interfacial tensions, water-in-DES solubilities (and salt-in-water
solubilities for TBAC–dec/water), density profiles, and the
number densities of hydrogen bonds. Different ionic charge scaling
factors were used for TBAC–dec. Thy–dec and Men–dec
showed a high level of hydrophobicity with negligible computed water-in-DES
solubilities. For charge scaling factors of 0.7 and 1 for the thymol
and decanoic acid components of Thy–dec, the computed interfacial
tensions of the DESs are in the following order: TBAC–dec (ca.
4 mN m–1) < Thy–dec (20 mN m–1) < Men–dec (26 mN m–1). The two sets
of charge scaling factors for Thy–dec did not lead to different
density profiles but resulted in considerable differences in the DES/water
interfacial tensions due to different numbers of decanoic acid–water
hydrogen bonds at the interfaces. Large peaks were observed for the
density profiles of (the hydroxyl oxygen of) decanoic acid at the
interfaces of all DES/water mixtures, indicating a preferential alignment
of the oxygen atoms of decanoic acid toward the aqueous phase.

Abstract
Chitin is mainly extracted from crustaceans, but this resource is seasonally dependent and can represent a major drawback to satisfy the traceability criterion for high valuable applications. Insect resources are valuable alternatives due to their lower mineral content. However, the deacetylation of chitin into chitosan is still an expensive process. Therefore, we herein compare the impact of both DES/IL-pretreatments on the efficiency of the chemical deacetylation of chitin carried out over two insect sources (Bombyx eri, BE and Hermetia illucens, HI) and shrimp shells (S). The results showed that chitosans obtained from IL-pretreated chitins from BE larva, present lower acetylation degrees (13-17%) than DES-pretreated samples (18-27%). A selective N-acylation reaction with oleic acid has also been performed on the purest and most deacetylated chitosans leading to high substitution degrees (up to 27%). The overall approach validates the proper chitin source and processing methodology to achieve high quality and highly functionalizable chitosan.

Abstract
Hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents (HDESs) have gained immense popularity because of their promising applications in extraction processes. Herein, we employ atomistic molecular dynamics simulations to unveil the dynamics of DL-menthol (DLM) based HDESs with hexanoic (C6), octanoic (C8), and decanoic (C10) acids as hydrogen bond donors. The particular focus is on understanding the nature of dynamics with changing acid tail length. For all three HDESs, two modes of hydrogen bond relaxations are observed. We observe longer hydrogen bond lifetimes of the inter-molecular hydrogen bonding interactions between the carbonyl oxygen of the acid and hydroxyl oxygen of menthol with hydroxyl hydrogen of both acids and menthol. We infer strong hydrogen bonding between them compared to that between hydroxyl oxygen of acids and hydroxyl hydrogens of menthol and acids, marked by a faster decay rate and shorter hydrogen bond lifetime. The translational dynamics of the species in the HDES becomes slower with increasing tail length of the organic acid. Slightly enhanced caging is also observed for the HDES with a longer tail length of the acids. The evidence of dynamic heterogeneity in the displacements of the component molecules is observed in all the HDESs. From the values of the α-relaxation time scale, we observe that the molecular displacements become random in a shorter time scale for DLM-C6. The analysis of the self-van Hove function reveals that the overall distance covered by DLM and acid molecules in the respective HDES is more than what is expected from ideal diffusion. As marked by the shorter time scale associated with hole filling, the diffusion of the oxygen atom of menthol and the carbonyl oxygen of acid from one site to the other is fastest for hexanoic acid containing HDES.

Abstract
The past two decades witnessed the development of a new type of solvent system, named deep eutectic solvents, which have become increasingly investigated because they offer new and potentially favorable properties, such as wide tunability in electrochemical, mechanical, and transport properties. Deep eutectic solvent (DES) systems are composed of at least one main solvent and an additional component that is meant to interrupt the original solvent/solvent interactions, thereby introducing lower melting points relative to each individual component. Ethaline (a 1:2 mol % mixture of choline chloride and ethylene glycol) is one of the most promising DES systems. However, it is also known to be very hygroscopic, which is a constant concern because water absorption during the use of ethaline alters its properties. Within this work, we demonstrate that modest amounts of water addition (1-10%) to ethaline are of little concern for practical use and can even lead to performance improvements, such as accelerated relaxation and solvation. In contrast, very small amounts of <1% of water lead to additional slowing of the solvent response. Thus, we suggest that the attempt to dry ethaline below 1% moisture is rather counterproductive if one attempts to achieve effective solvation and charge transport properties from DESs. This study investigates the effect of water content on the diffusional relaxation dynamics of ethaline. A set of independent spectroscopic experiments and computational simulations are aimed to provide insight into the solvent response of the DES system using femtosecond time-resolved absorption spectroscopy (fs-TA), broadband dielectric spectroscopy (BDS), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) diffusometry and broadband relaxometry, and molecular dynamics simulations (MDS) on ethaline with 0, 0.1, 1, 10, and 28.5 wt % added water. For dry ethaline, we identify choline chloride as the rate-limiting solvation component in ethaline. However, the role of the solvent components changes gradually as water is added. We provide quantitative solvent relaxation rates using the different presented time-resolved spectroscopic techniques and find remarkable agreement between them. Based on the solvent relaxation rates and combined with MDS, we develop a molecular understanding of the individual solvent components and their interactions in dry and wet ethaline with varying amounts of water content.

Abstract
Over the past decade, deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have earned applicability in numerous fields as non-flammable, non-volatile, and greener alternatives to conventional organic solvents. In a first of its kind, a hydrophobic DES composed of a 1:1 mixture of oleic acid and lidocaine was recently reported, possessing a lower critical solution temperature in water. The thermoreversible phase property of this DES-water system was utilized to sequester out dye molecules from their aqueous solutions. In this article, we explore the phase separation phenomena for this particular DES in its aqueous solution using an all-atom molecular dynamics simulation. A 50 wt. % solution of the DES in water was studied at three different temperatures (253, 293, and 313 K) to understand the various molecular interactions that dictate the phase segregation property of these systems. In this work, we have elaborated on the importance of hydrogen bonding interactions and the non-bonding interactions between the components and the competition between the two that leads to phase separation. Overall, we observe that the increase in unfavorable interaction between the DES components and water with increasing temperature determines the phase separation behavior. We have also studied the modification in the dynamical properties of water molecules close to the phase boundary. Such molecular insights would be beneficial for designing novel solvent systems that can be used as extraction-based media in industries.

Abstract
With the emergence of hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents (DESs), the scope of applications of DESs has been expanded to include situations in which miscibility with water is undesirable. Whereas most studies have focused on the applications of hydrophobic DESs from a practical standpoint, few theoretical works exist that investigate the structural and thermodynamic properties at the nanoscale. In this study, Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations have been performed to model DESs composed of tetraalkylammonium chloride hydrogen bond acceptor and decanoic acid hydrogen bond donor (HBD) at a molar ratio of 1:2, with three different cation chain lengths (4, 7, and 8). After fine-tuning force field parameters, densities, viscosities, self-diffusivities, and ionic conductivities of the DESs were computed over a wide temperature range. The liquid structure was examined using radial distribution functions (RDFs) and hydrogen bond analysis. The MD simulations reproduced the experimental density and viscosity data from the literature reasonably well and were used to predict diffusivities and ionic conductivities, for which experimental data are scarce or unavailable. It was found that although an increase in the cation chain length considerably affected the density and transport properties of the DESs (i.e., yielding smaller densities and slower dynamics), no significant influence was observed on the RDFs and the hydrogen bonds. The self-diffusivities showed the following order for the mobility of the various components: HBD > anion > cation. Strong hydrogen bonds between the hydroxyl and carbonyl groups of decanoic acid and between the hydroxyl group of decanoic acid and chloride were observed to dominate the intermolecular interactions.

Abstract
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) represent an emergent class of green designer solvents that find numerous applications in different aspects of chemical synthesis. A particularly appealing aspect of DES systems is their simplicity of preparation, combined with inexpensive, readily available starting materials to yield solvents with appealing properties (negligible volatility, non-flammability and high solvation capacity). In the context of polymer science, DES systems not only offer an appealing route towards replacing hazardous volatile organic solvents (VOCs), but can serve multiple roles including those of solvent, monomer and templating agent-so called "polymerizable eutectics." In this review, we look at DES systems and polymerizable eutectics and their application in polymer materials synthesis, including various mechanisms of polymer formation, hydrogel design, porous monoliths, and molecularly imprinted polymers. We provide a comparative study of these systems alongside traditional synthetic approaches, highlighting not only the benefit of replacing VOCs from the perspective of environmental sustainability, but also the materials advantage with respect to mechanical and thermal properties of the polymers formed.

Abstract
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are an emerging class of mixtures characterized by significant depressions in melting points compared to those of the neat constituent components. These materials are promising for applications as inexpensive "designer" solvents exhibiting a host of tunable physicochemical properties. A detailed review of the current literature reveals the lack of predictive understanding of the microscopic mechanisms that govern the structure-property relationships in this class of solvents. Complex hydrogen bonding is postulated as the root cause of their melting point depressions and physicochemical properties; to understand these hydrogen bonded networks, it is imperative to study these systems as dynamic entities using both simulations and experiments. This review emphasizes recent research efforts in order to elucidate the next steps needed to develop a fundamental framework needed for a deeper understanding of DESs. It covers recent developments in DES research, frames outstanding scientific questions, and identifies promising research thrusts aligned with the advancement of the field toward predictive models and fundamental understanding of these solvents.

Abstract
In this work, the aqueous phase diagram for the mixture of the hydrophilic tributyltetradecyl phosphonium ([P44414]Cl) ionic liquid with acetic acid (CH3COOH) is determined, and the temperature dependency of the biphasic region established. Molecular dynamic simulations of the [P44414]Cl + CH3COOH + H2O system indicate that the occurrence of a closed "type 0" biphasic regime is due to a "washing-out" phenomenon upon addition of water, resulting in solvophobic segregation of the [P44414]Cl. The solubility of various metal oxides in the anhydrous [P44414]Cl + CH3COOH system was determined, with the system presenting a good selectivity for CoO. Integration of the separation step was demonstrated through the addition of water, yielding a biphasic regime. Finally, the [P44414]Cl + CH3COOH system was applied to the treatment of real waste, NiMH battery black mass, being shown that it allows an efficient separation of Co(II) from Ni(II), Fe(III) and the lanthanides in a single leaching and separation step.

Abstract
Trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO) is a hydrophobic extracting agent used in a number of commercially important separations of valuable solutes from aqueous streams (with examples ranging from lanthanides, through gallium, to carboxylic acids). TOPO is traditionally used as a solute in kerosene, its extraction efficiency limited by its solubility in the organic diluents. In this work, eighteen hydrogen bond donors (HBDs) were screened for their capacity to liquefy TOPO, employing strategies used to design deep eutectic solvents (DES). The selected HBDs were all useful in separations and were designed to formulate solvent-free, hydrophobic, bi-functional liquid extracting agents. Some TOPO:HBD mixtures yielded hydrophobic liquids that offer potential to be extremely efficient extractants, incorporating high intrinsic concentrations of TOPO. Following this initial screening, two systems: TOPO:malonic acid and TOPO:levulinic acid, were selected for detailed physico-chemical characterisation across their complete compositional ranges. Phase diagrams, thermal stabilities and the mechanism of thermal decomposition are reported, along with densities and insights from 31P NMR spectroscopic studies. The work was concluded with a proof-of-concept demonstration of the use of the TOPO:malonic acid (2 : 1 mol ratio) mixture for the extraction of gallium from acidic chloride feedstock (simulated pre-digestate of zinc leach residue). The loading capacity of the TOPO:malonic acid extractant was three orders of magnitude greater than that of the literature benchmark, encouraging further application-oriented studies.

Abstract
Understanding the speciation of metal ions in heterogeneous hydrogen-bonded deep eutectic solvents (DES) has immense importance for their wide range of applications in green technology, environmental remediation, and nuclear industry. Unfortunately, the fundamental nature of the interaction between DES and actinide ions is almost completely unknown. In the present work, we outline the speciation, solvation mechanism, and redox chemistry of uranyl ion (UO22+) in DES consisting of choline chloride (ChCl) and urea as the hydrogen-bond donor. Electrochemical and spectroscopic techniques along with molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have provided a microscopic insight into the solvation and speciation of the UO22+ ion in DES and also on associated changes in physical composition of the DES. The hydrogen-bonded structure of DES plays an important role in the redox behavior of the UO22+ ion because of its strong complexation with DES components. X-ray absorption spectroscopy and MD simulations showed strong covalent interactions of uranyl ions with the constituents of DES, which led to rearrangement of the hydrogen-bonding network in it without formation of any clusters or aggregations. This, in turn, stabilizes the most unstable pentavalent uranium (UO2+) in the DES. MD analysis also highlights the fact that the number of H-bonds is reduced in the presence of uranyl nitrate irrespective of the presence of water with respect to pristine reline, which suggests high stability of the formed complexed species. The effect of added water up to 20 v/v % on speciation is insignificant for DES, but the presence of water influences the redox chemistry of UO22+ ions considerably. The fundamental findings of the present work would have far reaching consequences on understanding DES, particularly for application in the field of nuclear fuel reprocessing.

Abstract
In the over 1,800 articles published since their inception in 2001, most deep eutectic solvents (DES) synthesized have been hydrophilic. The low cost, low toxicity, and bioavailability of DES make the solvent ‘green’ and sustainable for diverse applications. Conversely, the hydrophilicity of DES limits their practical application to only polar compounds, which is a major drawback of the solvent. For the past three years, hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents (HDES) have emerged as an alternative extractive media capable of extracting non-polar organic and inorganic molecules from aqueous environments. Due to the infancy of HDES, for the first time, this mini-review summarizes the recent developmental advances in HDES synthesis, applications, challenges, and future perspectives of the solvent. In the future, it is believed HDES will replace the majority of toxic organic solvents used for analytical purposes.
