I don't know what you ligand really is, but you should check that it really
has an odd number of electrons. The antehcamber scheme will only work for
closed-shell molecules. If you really have a stable radical, constructing
a force field for it will almost certainly involve a lot of hand-work. But
Arzoxifene itself has an even number of electrons, and *very* few organic
drug-like molecules are radicals.

Something odd is going on here, if the same +1 charge can yield structures
with both even and odd numbers of electrons. I don't think anyone on the list
will be able to resolve this without more information.
