First, you probably will need to put vdW radii on the hydrogens, or otherwise
keep them from getting too close to another oxygen atom on the same phosphate.
It's probably a good idea to see what people have done with AMP or GMP as a
start.

And, are you sure you should have two OH groups? I'd think(?) this would only
occur under very acidic conditions.
