Hi,
I have carefully examined your molecule. The structure should be correct
(forming C=O, neutral). I am not sure how you did QM calculations and how
you set the radii for Iodine. I calculated HF/CEP-121G (the radii for I was
set to 1.98) optimization for your ligand molecule and derived the resp
charges. I can see the difference between yours and mine is enormous. Please
see the attached prepi file.
After that, I tried to repeat your MD results. Using your charges, the 1-4
interaction became unrealistic negative and led the program to crash for
both minimization and MD. However, with my RESP charges based on HF/CEP-121G
(I think HF/CEP-31G, which mimics the HF/6-31G* better, should be used), the
minimization and MD were run smoothly. Please see the attached sander
outputs.
According to my experience, gaff can handle most organic molecules well and
I have successfully run MD simulations for at least 500 organic molecules,
all in TIP3P water or the other organic solvents. The trouble molecules I
met are those containing high positive or negative charges (>1.5 and < -1.5)
or those are gases at the simulation contidions. For most trouble molecules,
I still can make MD running by modifing MD inputs and minimizing the unideal
strctures.
Good luck
