Validation of the 2‐fluoro substituent as an inert steering group to control chemical glycosylation is presented. A molecular editing study has revealed that the exceptional levels of diastereocontrol in glycosylation processes by using 2‐fluoro‐3,4,6‐tri‐ O ‐benzyl glucopyranosyl trichloroacetimidate (TCA) scaffolds are a consequence of the 2 R ,3 S ,4 S stereotriad. This study has also revealed that epimerization at C4, results in a substantial enhancement in β‐selectivity (up to β/α 300:1).
