I don't see the exact problem you are referring to, but I agree that
antechamber is having trouble with the 4-methylpyridinium parts. This is a
pretty evil molecule for automatic bond perception: the underlying four-fold
symmetry is broken both the by two hydrogens in the middle of the ring, and
(in a different way) by the fact that one of the meso substitutents is
different from the other three.
It looks like you need to assign bond types by hand here. You might try the
parent molecule TMPyP, and modify one of the meso substitutents by hand. But
you need to make sure that the bonds at the meso carbons (to the substitutents
are single bonds.)
...good luck....dac
