Thanks for your reply!

So here is what I did.

First, I formatted the lig.pdb into its current form (attached).

Then I used following commands

----
tleap -s -f leaprc.GLYCAM_06
com = loadpdb lig.pdb
bond com.1.O1 com.2.C1
bond com.2.O3 com.3.C1
bond com.2.O6 com.4.C1
saveamberparm com lig_tmp.top lig_tmp.crd
savepdb com lig_tmp.pdb
----
I then used top2mol2 command to create lig_tmp.mol2 file from top and crd
files.
The structure I am getting looks good, however, I yet to run the MD.
I will be very thankful if you can cross-check this procedure.
