I just thought out another idea, why not use leap! You may use antechamber
to convert that mol2 file into pdb and load it into leap. From the edit
window, you can delete some atoms and only keep one molecule and save it in
pdb format (savepdb). Do this for each molecule in that file. By this way,
you both keep coordinates and atom names.

Thank you so much for your advice. Unfortunately, I do need to maintain
coordinates, but I will try the smile string suggestion. If I load the MOL2
file back into Sybyl and use that to split it into two separate files, will
it automatically renumber them and cause incompatibility with the pdb file
I
load in, or is there a way to "freeze" the numbers assigned to each atom in
the structures if I were to delete half and save the other half into a new
MOL2 file in Sybyl? I'm afraid that I must use the original positional
coordinates for the two molecules in the MOL2 file, because it represents
an
already properly relaxed conformation of the structure.
Yours Truly,
Zeve Akerling
