A concise asymmetric formal synthesis of (–)‐swainsonine from readily available D ‐erythronolactone is described. The key steps include a highly diastereoselective amination of a chiral benzylic ether, which occurs with the retention of stereochemistry using chlorosulfonyl isocyanate, and a palladium‐catalyzed decarboxylative N ‐allylation of an allyl carbamate.
