The asymmetric synthesis of homochiral (S)-(+)-ethyl 3-dimethylamino-3-phenyl propionate, via stereoselective Michael addition of lithium dimethylamide to (S)-Z-5-C5H5)-Fe(CO)(PPh3)COCH=CHPh> and oxidative decomplexation, establishes the absolute configuration of Winterstein's acid 3-dimethylamino-3-phenyl propionic acid derived from Taxine B, as R.
