another alternative that is very good is the sennheiser binaural mics - but they only work with apple products so far. You might be able to get a set secondhand . I had a try of someone's and they seemed pretty good https://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-AMBEO-Smart-Headset-iOS/dp/B0744PC5J8
A few observations:
The Minijack (TRRS) to Lightening adapter that comes with your iPhone allow stereo OUT (intended for headphones) and mono IN (intended for the telephone conversations). You cannot get stereo into your iPhone through this adapter (or any TRRS connection for that matter)
The Tascam interface you link to, appear to be a mono interface - it has one XLR input (one channel) and a male TRRS minijack connection. It also provide "phantom power" which is not the same as "plug in power (PIP)". In other words - it doesn't work because it does not provide PIP which is a requirement for the microphone. Even if it provided PIP, it would only give you a mono signal.
To get a stereo signal into your iPhone you need an external AD converter that that is designed for stereo and plugs directly into the lightening port - and in this case you need to verify that it in fact provides PIP in order to use your microphone.

The most straightforward and easy (but pricey) way to to make binaural recordings on your iPhone, would be to get a Sennheiser AMBEO smart headset. https://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-AMBEO-Smart-Headset-iOS/dp/B0744PC5J8
A more economical and yet easy way for you to make recordings with your current headset, would be to get a Zoom H1n - or a H1 - the latter model is discontinued and is only interesting if you can find it at a price around 30% lower than the newer H1n.
