A series of new 6-aryl-6H-naphtho[2’,1’:5,6]pyrano[4,3-b][1,8]naphthyridines III have been synthesized by condensing 2-aminonicotinaldehyde (I) with a number of 1-hydroxy-2-naphthyl styryl ketones II in the presence of glacial acetic acid containing a catalytic amount of conc. sulphuric acid. The products have been characterized on the basis of elemental analyses and spectral data. Antibacterial activity of these compounds is negligible.
