“…ESs are composed of hydrogen bond acceptors (HBAs) and hydrogen bond donors (HBDs), which are able to self-associate due to the generation of intermolecular hydrogen bonds that form a eutectic point presenting a lower melting point than the individual components. ,, ESs prepared from natural products and biological molecules (choline, amino acids, organic acids, sugars, etc.) are the so-called natural (deep) eutectic solvents (NADESs or NAESs), and they can be safely used in food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics industries. , ESs have recently shown to be effective solvents for the valorization of agri-food waste by means of natural polyphenolic antioxidants recovery. , Moreover, hydrophobic ESs (HESs) can be adopted as solvents for the extraction of compounds of interest from aqueous environments. − For instance, Ribeiro et al successfully extracted vanillin from aqueous environments using novel eutectic mixtures based on dl -menthol and naturally occurring acids, obtaining a partition coefficient of 5.72 with the dl -menthol:lactic acid 1:1 eutectic mixture . The use of NAESs, which consisted of mixtures of two or more common natural products (such as choline chloride, organic acids, sugars, and glycerol, among others), combined in specific molar proportions, has also been evaluated to study the solubility of pure vanillin in them and the management of extracting between 7.6–16.7 mg/g of vanillin from vanilla beans, in this case from solid matrices …”
