In any case it should be

div1.appendChild(div2.removeNode(true))

However:

1) removeNode is MS proprietary, instead you should do

div2.parentNode.removeChild(div2)

2) it isn't necessary to remove a node before appending it. If you do

div1.appendChild(div2)

it works fine: the node is removed from its erstwhile position and appended 
to the new position.
