Stephane,
For amine-N-Oxide group, I would develop my own force field; i.e.
create my own FF atom types etc... i.e. a new frcmod file; what's
first matters is the vdW parameters for this oxygen: just compare the
vdW params for oxygen atoms in parm99 & gaff: what are the
differences? none... once gain; I do not think gaff is useful here.
