Some new 4‐(aryl)‐2,6‐di‐2‐naphthylpyridines and 4‐(aryl)‐2,6‐di‐2‐thienylpyridines have been prepared through three‐component condensation of 2‐acetylnaphthalene or 2‐acetylthiophene, aromatic aldehydes, and ammonium acetate in presence of 1‐(4‐sulfonylbutyl) pyridinium hydrogensulfate [(CH2)4SO3HPy][HSO4], a Brønsted acidic ionic liquid as a green and reusable catalyst in solvent‐free conditions. Also some new 4,4'‐(1,4‐phenylene)‐bis‐(2,6‐di‐aryl pyridine) was prepared. J. Heterocyclic Chem., (2011).
