Polarity parameters and biomass dissolution Biomass dissolution in a medium depends on untangling of -bond network and is facilitated by the basicity of the solvent. Ionic liquids having hydrogen bond donor basicity (β) > 0.8 are efficient in wood pretreatment & dissolution processes. Alkanolammonium chloride-based DESs can be promising candidates in biomass dissolution because of their high β value. Brandt, A. et al. Green Chem., 2010, 12, 672 679
