To compare free energies of different protonation states, you need to have a
balanced chemical equation. That is, the "extra" protons need to come from
somewhere (usually a hypothetical bath at some pH). Check the "constant pH"
section of the manual (and the references cited there) for some ideas about
this.

If you really want the gas phase free energies (e.g. for mass spec analysis?),
it will probably require some work, since Amber is really designed for
condensed phase simulations.
...good luck...dac
