Hi Bruno,
What version of Chimera are you using?   The problem you're reporting was fixed on March 17th of this year so if you use the current production release candidate you shouldn't have this problem.

Hi

After getting the conformations as *.sdf (or *.pdb) files with
Macromodel (from Shroedinger) and/or Vconf(VeraChem) I use Chimera to
add missing H's and add charges with amber 99.
After these steps are completed, I split the sdf conformations-file
into single *.mol2 files. All works fine except for the last step,
that changes a single bond into a double bond in each molecule. I am
correcting this manualy opening the *.mol2 file with Texd editors and
changing the double bond into single bond the the benzene rings.
Opening a chosen conformation from the  *.sdf file it looks
correct.So, the problem happens during conversion/splitting process.

Question:
How can this  arbitrary bond change be avoided?


Attached zip file with *.mol2 examples of one compound after splitting  process.

Thank you
Regards
Bruno
