New Ni(II) complex was synthesized from 4-phenoxy-2,6-dichloro-straizinernand 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine in the presence of hydratedrnmetal salt, Nicl2.6H2O in 1,4-dioxane-methanol medium. Before thernsynthesis of the complex, 4-phenoxy-2,6-dichloro-s-traizine wasrnprepared according to the procedure reported. The complexrnsynthesized was characterized on the bases of chemical analysis,rnmagnetic susceptibility, uv-vis spectroscopy and conductivity data.rnBased on the data obtained octahedral geometry is proposed.
