Dear AMBER users,
I need some advice about force field modification. I have a series of
ligands that have this imino-hydantoin moiety in common. The frcmod.ligand
file generated with parmchk has only IMPROPER angle definitions (is this
normal?).

Particularly, the hn proton shown in the picture below is out of the place
of the aromatic imino-hydantoin ring. In the IMPROPER section, there is a
dihedral angle definition for that (c2-c3-nh-hn), therefore I wonder why it
does not remain on the aromatic plane during the MD simulation. What
modifications could I make in the frcmod file in order to maintain the
aromaticity of imino-hydantoin moiety?

Thanks in advance for any advice.
