Replacing the anomeric C atom of 2‐deoxy‐ O ‐glucose with an N atom and the ring O atom with a C atom leads to 1 , the most potent β‐glycosidase inhibitor known to date. This synthetic monosaccharide derivative also inhibits other glucosidases better than naturally occurring sugar derivatives in which only the O atom in the ring is exchanged for an N atom.
