Many natural products (NPs) exhibit strong antioxidant activity, making them valuable for various applications. In this context, the emergence of deep eutectic solvents (DESs) is expected to help address growing demand innovative, efficient, and more sustainable methods NPs extraction. DESs are designer that provide higher yields enhance activity extracted phytochemicals compared with conventional volatile organic solvents. Antioxidant naturally occurring molecules can also form DESs, either as hydrogen bond donors (HBD) or acceptors (HBA), creating DES (NADES) inherent activity. Thus, containing exert synergistic effects, entire system a promising active ingredient food industry The synergy arises from enhanced solubilization stabilization in through bonding, ionic interactions, van der Waals forces. Collectively, enable effectively neutralize oxidants (such ROS free radicals) regulate their reactions other molecules, achieving up 3-fold increase extracts regular vitro. This Account overviews wide range resources using DESs. activities HBA, HBD, along advantageous coupling extracts, thoroughly discussed. Finally, we envisage future directions potential applications harnessing collective guide advances chemistry.
