Deep Eutectic Solvent (Des) As A New Solvent For Lipase-Catalyzed Synthesis Of Glyceryl Monocaffeate Via Transesterification

Ionic liquids and deep eutectic solvent (DES) have been identified as greener alternatives solvents. Nevertheless, ionic liquid has been reported to display toxicity to the environment due to its starting material (i.e. imidazolium-based cation). Therefore, the design of DES for ionic liquids substi...
