A flexible synthesis of azasugars and homoazasugars from vinyl glycine methyl ester is described. The syntheses, which are based on ring closing olefin metathesis steps and stereocontrolled functionalizations of the formed double bonds, offer a broad variability of functionalization and stereochemistry of the products.
