The formation of levoglucosan and 1,6‐anhydroglucofuranose in the thermal decomposition of glucose derivatives, such as methyl and phenyl glucosides and oligosaccharides was studied. It was found that the cleavage of glucosidic linkages in general involves both transglycosylation and hydrolysis. Some conclusions relating to the thermal stability of the various glucosides were drawn and the mechanisms of the reaction are discussed.
