To make marinade, in a small bowl, combine soy sauce, vinegar, syrup, lemon juice, and ginger; whisk to blend.
Place salmon pieces in a nonreactive (not aluminum) container.
Pour marinade over them and turn to coat. Refrigerate 1 hour.
Preheat broiler. Spray a nonstick broiler pan with olive oil.
Place salmon, skin side up, on pan and transfer marinade to a small saucepan.
Broil salmon 4 inches from heat for 4 minutes. Meanwhile, bring marinade to a boil; simmer 2 minutes.
Turn salmon, baste with marinade, sprinkle with sesame seeds and broil another 4 minutes or until just cooked through.
Fish and marinade can be served hot, at room temperature or chilled. Spoon a tablespoon of boiled marinade over each piece; garnish with green onion.
