The simplest way is to get am1-bcc charges via antechamber (using the
"-c bcc" flag). Generally speaking, tests of this charge model over
many ligands shows good performance, but that doesn't mean it is by any
means the best choice for every ligand.
A second, popular, approach is to get RESP charges. The R.E.D. web
service (at
http://upjv.q4md-forcefieldtools.org/RED/) is very popular
for working a single ligand. And their database may already have
charges for your ligand--it's worth a check.
I'm sure that in principle, one can use antechamber for this purpose,
even with Gaussian. But someone else will have to supply details here.
