Natural Deep Eutectic Solvents – Solvents for the 21st Century

TL;DR: Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) as discussed by the authors are a class of solvents that can be defined as a mixture of two or more components, which at a particular composition present a high melting point depression becoming liquids at room temperature.

Deep Eutectic Solvents Formed between Choline Chloride and Carboxylic Acids: Versatile Alternatives to Ionic Liquids

TL;DR: It is shown that the conductivity and viscosity of these liquids is controlled by ion mobility and the availability of voids of suitable dimensions, and this is consistent with the fluidity of other ionic liquids and molten salts.

Are deep eutectic solvents benign or toxic

TL;DR: It was found that the cytotoxicity of DESs was much higher than their individual components (e.g. glycerine, ChCl) indicating that their toxicological behavior is different.
