Hello,
I am trying to simulate Ethanol in water using OPLSAA. I already
tried it with all atoms, but now I want to try it with United atoms
for ethanol, i.e. CH3,CH2,OH, and HO in my topology file. I created
the topology but I got an error saying 'No bond types', so I checked
ffoplsaabon.itp file, and as the error indicated I could not find any
bond types. Is there a way for me to determine the bonds? This is my
topology file for ethanol:
[ moleculetype ]

I checked one of the paper that has been published using the same
parameters as follows:
Table 1. Potential Parameters and Molecular
Geometries of OPLS-UA and SPC/E
qa
atom or group ?, Å , kJ/mol
OPLS
R1 3.905 0.7322 0.000
R2 3.905 0.4937 0.265
-0.700
O 3.070 0.7113
H 0.000 0.0000 0.435
I would really appreciate some suggestions, on how I should tackle the error.
Thanks
