Thank you for your comment. It appears that the problem is coming more from
the charges that from the bond. The problematic type was coming from an O
in a carboxylate moiety.

* starting from 10gs_ligand.xyz (copied below), I converted it to sdf with
"obabel 10gs_ligand.xyz -O 10gs_ligand_NEW1.sdf". The types found are the
same as in the .xyz file (=problematic). The bond perception is the same as
in the original sdf file, however the atoms 4 and 9 (the two oxygens of the
carboxylate) have an assigned charge of 0.
* if I do "obabel 10gs_ligand.xyz -O 10gs_ligand_NEW2.sdf -p 7", then both
the charges and the types are assigned correctly as in the original sdf.
(note that both new .sdf files have the same number of atoms).
