Hi,
Could anyone tell me how to parameterize a new molecule for using it
with OPLS (basic principles).

As normal, you need atom and residue names corresponding to those for
your forcefield, as modified.

None. That's not what .mdp parameters are for. Roughly speaking, the
.top file and it's #includes define the model of physics for the system,
and the .mdp file controls the choice of algorithms for the simulation.
The two are interdependent, however.
To be more specific: some force field have been developed with a certain
cut-off treatment, and you might want to use the recommendations. On the
other hand you might want to evaluate the effects of these parameters
yourself. Both OPLS and GROMOS have been developed with certain cut-off
protocols, but many users now use them with PME.
