The 2,3,4-trideoxy-2,3,4-trifluoro hexose analogues of d-glucose and d-altrose were prepared and characterised and these novel sugar analogues were explored by 2D-(19)F-EXSY NMR for their potential to cross erythrocyte (red blood cell) membranes, by comparison with the well known capacity of erythrocytes to transport d-glucose.
