Carboxylic acid-based deep eutectic solvents unlock biomass recalcitrance for efficient conversion of polysaccharides to monosaccharides.

Lignocellulosic biomass faces challenges in efficient valorization due to its recalcitrance. Herein, deep eutectic solvents (DESs) composed of ethylene glycol and carboxylic acids with varying alkyl chain lengths are systematically investigated to ov…
