You could use PyRED at R.E.D. Server Dev...

Chemical equivalencing & atom typing for carbon nanotubes is very
robust in PyRED from our tests...
(I do not think Antechamber handle these cases)

Obviously there are limits at R.E.D. Server Dev.
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/REDServer-Development/faq.php#17
but these limits can be postponed and the different options of OPT_Calc
in the System.config file can also help
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/REDServer-Development/Documentation/System.config
i.e. OPT_Calc = On2

See also the METHOD_OPTCALC, BASSET_OPTCALC, METHOD_MEPCALC &
BASSET_MEPCALC keyword
better using the last version of Gaussian here; so creating a private
account...
