Where is the nameserver for these domains?
You can't change a domains ip and expect to have instant success.
You have to change the nameserver zone file.
You have to wait for this change to propagate, $TTL 1D.
You could set your PC(\windows\hosts) (/etc/hosts) file up for domain2
Then you will see the new domain.
