I had a similar problem, since I had to simulate a mixture of water
and propylene glycol. I made PG by myself, optimizing the structure
and calculating charges by means of quantum chemistry (you can
calculate ESP and then calculate atomic charges with respgen utility
of amber). At the end, I create the library, since parmchk utility of
amber can give you parameters you need.
Now the simulation is going well.
If you want to know more, feel free to contact me.
