Abstract

See full text

Process of preparing 1,6-.beta.-D-anhydroglucopyranose (levoglucosan) in high purity is described, where the starting material with a water-content, adjusted to max. 20%, is pyrolyzed, the volatile components are condensed and this distillate is neutralized. After filtration and optional treatment with an adsorbent, the mixture is chromatographically separated over an ion-exchange resin with water as eluent. Levoglucosan containing fractions are concentrated and crystalline levoglucosan is obtained by an evaporation - and/or cooling crystallization from a supersaturated water solution.
