A short, highly diastereoselective synthesis of (+)-1-deoxynojirimycin from readily available l-isoserine with overall yield of 32.0% in eight steps is described. The key step includes a diastereoselective syn-coupling reaction of Cbz-protected (S)-iso-serinal acetonide 6 and vinylzinc nucleophile, generated conveniently from a protected propargyl alcohol 7 by a hydrozirconation- transmetalation sequence. Significantly, not only does this simple flexible strategy provide a concise approach to (+)-1-deoxynojirimycin, but it also can readily be adopted for the synthesis of other stereoisomers of the 1-deoxynojirimycin family from l- or d-iso-serine through different coupling conditions and stereoselective -epoxidation of allylic alcohol 4 by the same procedures.

A short, enantiospecific synthesis of (-)-swainsonine (1) from D-mannose has been achieved by a route involving, as a key step, a double cyclization of 4c.The synthesis takes adventage of new features of sodium borohydride for reducing conjugated esters and lactams.
