Sivasanker,

it is not completely clear to me, what you intend to do, so I can only
guess that you are trying to create (R)ESP atomic charges for a sodium
cluster.

For monovalent ions there are already different parameter sets
available, which can be used in structure optimization and molecular
dynamics simulation with different force fields; have a look in the
Amber manual about that.

To simulate an isolated cluster of metal ions, AMBER force fields may be
not the ideal choice, since the focus is on biomolecules. Quantum
chemistry is better suited to describe such a system.

(Anyway: antechamber seems to output how to freeze the bond types;
convert your input file to ac or mol2 format, edit that file, and rerun
antechamber.)

Good luck,

Anselm
