In　this　study,　we　discussed　an　efficient　approach　for　the　synthesis　of　camphorquinone　from　camphor　by　the　continuous　reaction　of　bromination　and　oxidation.　The　oxidation　of　3-bromocamphor　was　catalyzed　by　Fe-porphyrins　with　air.　The　catalytic　activity　of　iron-metallated　functional　porphyrins　was　investigated　under　optimization　conditions.　The　results　showed　that　this　method　was　a　milder　alternative　to　the　reported　methods,　with　a　simple,　greener　procedure　in　which　the　advantages　were　the　utilization　of　air　as　the　oxidant　and　the　use　of　metalloporphyrins　as　catalysts.
