In spite of the "MB" in its acronym, Amber is not a very powerful model
building program: it generally assumes that an appropriate starting structure
is available. My suggestion is to find an drug-dna complex in the pdb
with an intercalating drug similar to yours, then change the drug in the pdb
structure into your drug. You'll probably have to be somewhat inventive to
get this done.
