Hi,

I am trying to simulate an organic system which has a planar-square Pt center. 
I am following the methodology employed in JACS 2008, 10040 (where they use 
amber calculations). There, they use 2 dummy atoms to mantain the planar square 
geometry of the metal. 

I have built my system with no dummy atoms, using GAFF and converted it into 
Gromacs, so now I have a .gro and a .top file.

I have introduced then the dummy atoms, in the .gro and in the topology file, 
but I get errors complaining about these extra atoms has mass 0. 

I have read the manual and also looked at the GMX list, and I have found that 
other people have also found problems of these type. I have read that in case 
such as acetonitrile the advice was to redistribute the mass over N and CH3 
such that centre of mass is unchanged and inertia tensor is not modified too 
much either.

Should I do something similar in my case? Which mass should I redistribute? The 
mass of the whole molecule? 

 

Thank you very much for your help.

 

Best wishes,
