Choline chloride when combined with urea is a well-known deep eutectic  solvent system. The coordination of urea around the chloride ion is a  proposed basis for the formation of the solvent system. Little research  has been done to determine the effectiveness of the system when only the  ion associated with the choline is altered. The associated ion will be  altered to formulate various compounds to determine the effectiveness of  formulation of solvent systems using compounds such as choline nitrate,  while maintaining the use of urea. The melting point of the solvent  will be determined and the Diels-Alder reaction will be run in the  solvent system to determine its effectiveness and practicality as a  useful solvent.
