It appears that our parmeterization of the organic molecule must have
problems. You are creating a ring structure (with an S-O bond(!?!)) in the
yellow that probably should not be there. The sam1.mol2 file you post indeed
has an S-O distance of 1.81 Ang., and a bond is indicated to be formed.
It's not clear how this happened. Are you sure you gave the red structure as
input to antechamber? This could be an sqm minimization problem, but it seems
very odd to me. See what happens if you use the R.E.D. server to get RESP
charges (this might already be in one of their databases, anyway).
