Efficient and stereodivergent syntheses of (-)-swainsonine and 1,2-di-epi-swainsonine starting from the readily available enantiomerically pure γ-hydroxy-α,β-unsaturated sulfone (R)-2 are described. The stereoselectivity in the osmium-dihydroxylation step of the unsaturated indolizidines 8 was highly dependent on the substitution at C8. 1,2-di-epi-swainsonine was found to be a good inhibitor of α-d-mannosidase (jack bean).
