Inhibited : N ‐acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) derivatives with a fluorine atom at the C4 position ( 2 – 4 ) were synthesized, and their ability to inhibit cancer‐cell growth was investigated. The administration of these 4F‐GlcNAc derivatives to cells led to the unnatural sugar nucleotide 1 . Furthermore, N‐glycan profiles of cells were determined by using a glycoblotting‐based enrichment analysis, which is suitable for high‐throughput screenings for drug discovery.
