You could use a "flat bottom" NMR-type constraint to keep the O=O distance
from getting too big, e.g.

  &rst iat = 3,6, r1=0.1, r2=2.0, r3=12.0, r4=99.0, rk2 = 0.0, rk3=10.0, /

This (untested!) restraint will have no effect until the distance between
atoms 3 and 6 gets to 12 Ang, and then the energy will rise quickly, pushing
the two molecules back together.
