Hi Valik, I do this on a regular basis for our generators here. Basically what you will need is to:
1. Generate 3D structures for the molecules (RDKit can do that) 2. Save to SDF files (again, RDKit) 3. Convert to PDBQT (I use OpenBabel: "$ obabel -isdf structures.sdf -opdbqt -Oname-.pdbqt -m") Then you'll have the files you need. Of course, you will still need to build the pdbqt file for the target and the vina_config file, but that you only need to do once. All the best, -- Gustavo Seabra.
