Hi Milinda, There are different methods to do Free energy. I am using Thermodynamics Integration method; hence if you are interested to use TI I am willing to guide you, but I never use bar method. I did some parametrization so if you float your topology and mpd files I will give you some idea how to do it.

Aniline and anilinium are different, with the latter being more difficult to deal with on account of its charge. If you post your topology, perhaps someone will have some tips on how to modify it to produce better results, but proper small molecule parameterization is not a task well-suited for new users. It may take considerable time and effort to derive a high-quality topology.
