Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Deep Eutectic Systems (DES) have emerged as a promising, cost-effective class of solvents with attractive and tunable properties dependent on the choice of their constituent precursors. DES have already been used in numerous fields, but the focus of this Special Issue is their application in Catalysis. Either as reaction media, catalysts, stabilizing agents, or solvents in downstream processing, DES can bring diverse benefits to the process, beyond just simply replacing volatile hazardous conventional solvents. The main objective in this Special Issue is to demonstrate recent insights on the role of eutectic mixtures in the catalytic processes (bio-, electro-, -photochemical, as well as organic and organometallic transformations), but the fundamental research aiming at a better understanding of these novel solvents nature and properties is also welcomed.
We invite authors to submit comprehensive research articles, reviews, communications, or letters representing both experimental and theoretical studies.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Catalysts is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
