title: Anhydro sugars and oligosaccharides from the thermolysis of sucrose.
abstract: Thermolysis of anhydrous, amorphous, acidified sucrose results in polymerization initially involving the fructosyl cation and later the glucosyl cation. Monomeric and dimeric anhydro sugars form during the thermolysis and are incorporated into the fructoglucan polymer.
