1, 2.Bis(o-aminophenoxy)ethane was prepared in a one stage process in this reaction, Pd/C was. used as catalyst.1, 2-Bis(o-aminophenoxy)ethane was synthesized from 1 ,2-bis(o-nitrophenoxylethane. Diamine complexes [CoLCI22H2O], [CuLCI2]0.5H2O.and [NIL2 (C2H5O)2] have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, AM, IR UV-VIS. ‘H-NMR and magnetic measurements.
