Enolates derived from phosphoramide derivatives of carboxylic acid esters were found to act as regiocontrolled nucleophiles for the alkylation of tricarbonyl(eta5-cyclohexadienyl)iron(1+) salts, even in cases where weak (Me) regiodirecting groups were present as unsymmetrically placed substituents....
