inhibitors of fucosylation have shown promise as therapeutic agents for sickle cell disease, arthritis, and cancer. We describe here the design and synthesis of a panel of fluorinated l-fucose analogs bearing fluorine atoms at the C2 and/or C6 positions of l-fucose as metabolic fucosylation inhibitors. Preliminary study of their effects on cell proliferation revealed that the 6,6-difluoro-l-fucose (3) and
