A highly efficient and ecofriendly extraction method using deep eutectic solvents was developed to extract bioactive flavonoids from Abelmoschus manihot (Linn.) Medicus flowers. First, a series of deep eutectic solvents using choline chloride as hydrogen bond acceptor with different hydrogen bond donors was successfully synthesized. Then, the types of deep eutectic solvents and the extraction conditions for bioactive flavonoids (hyperoside, isoquercitrin, and myricetin) were optimized based on the flavonoids extraction efficiencies. The optimized deep eutectic solvent for hyperoside and isoquercitrin extraction was composed of choline chloride and acetic acid with a molar ratio of 1:2. The optimized deep eutectic solvent for myricetin extraction was composed of one mole of choline chloride and two moles of methacrylic acid. The optimal extraction conditions were set as: solid to solvent ratio, 35:1 (mg/mL); extraction time, 30 min; extraction temperature, 30°C. Qualitative and quantitative analysis were performed using ultra high performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry and high‐performance liquid chromatography. And the extraction efficiencies of hyperoside, isoquercitrin, and myricetin under optimal extraction conditions were calculated as 11.57, 5.64, and 1.11 mg/g, much higher than those extracted by traditional extraction solvents. Therefore, the prepared deep eutectic solvents can be selected as alternative solvent to extract bioactive flavonoids.
