Dear Michael,

Kindly note the information given during running the job

Running: /var/spool/scratch/shokhen/amber16/bin/atomtype -i
ANTECHAMBER_AC.AC0 -o ANTECHAMBER_AC.AC -p gaff
Total number of electrons: 231; net charge: 0
INFO: Number of electrons is odd: 231
      Please check the total charge (-nc flag) and spin multiplicity (-m
flag)

you can adjust the charge and multiplicity of your molecule by putting the
-nc and -m flags respectively to your command.

As your molecule has a charge of -1, you can specify it in the command as:

antechamber -i MS75.pdb -fi pdb -o MS75.mol2 -fo mol2 -c bcc -s 2 -nc -1
(-m 0)

This should solve your problem...

All the best!!!
