The efficient synthesis, antiviral activity, and duplex‐stabilizing properties of both isomers of the 2′‐fluoro analogue of Northern methanocarbathymidine (N‐MCT), 2 and 3 , are reported. We show that 2′‐F incorporation on the N‐MCT scaffold has a strong stabilizing effect on duplex thermal stability.
