The syntheses of various deoxycelluloses and related structures (cellulosenes and anhydrocelluloses) from the mid‐1920s to the present are critically reviewed. General synthetic strategies to prepare deoxycelluloses include nucleophilic displacement of good leaving groups. Distinctions are made between reaction of cellulosics under homogeneous and heterogeneous conditions. Recent advances in the preparation of halodeoxycelluloses have led to high degree of substitution fluorodeoxycelluloses and bromodeoxycelluloses. Applications for the deoxycelluloses are numerous and characterized by biological, chemical or physical end uses.
