Dear Roopali,

The reason antechamber fails is quite clearly explained in the error
message:
"*Total number of electrons: 205; net charge: 0 *
INFO: Number of electrons is odd: 205
      Please check the total charge (-nc flag) and spin multiplicity (-m
flag)"

I haven't checked your pdb, but your diphosphate probably has a formal
charge of -3 or so, so you should use antechamber with "-nc -3".

More importantly, however, antechamber/GAFF is not really meant for
parameterising ADP. Luckily, others (Carlson et al., 2003) have developed
parameters that should (at the very least) be a good starting point.

See here:

You can donwload the prepc and frcmod files for ADP and ATP from there.

Good luck,
Marc
