Gaussian is an ab initio format and as such, does not have any notion of connectivity. You can convert your molecule into Gaussian z-matrix input (gzmat), which will yield some connectivity by defining distances, angles and torsion angles between atoms, but again, there is no notion of a chemical bond there.
