Hi Mahendra,
Your coordinates are two-dimensional, not three-dimensional.  Chimera is not going to be able to correctly determine the atom types for a two-dimensional compound, nor appropriately protonate it, nor properly minimize it.    You could directly write a two-dimensional mol2 file from the sdf simply by dropping the runCommand("minimize") step of the processing script, but many of the mol2 atom types would be wrong.
I think you need to use some other tool for your conversion.  Maybe Open Babel?

Dear Chimera users,

I am trying to convert sdf file ( downloaded from diversity set data from 'http://scs.illinois.edu/htsf/compound_collection/nci.php') into mol2 format. When I ran the command chimera --nogui processSDF.py
as given the previous posting ( http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/pipermail/chimera-users/2010-March/004974.html), I got the following error messages:
Cannot find consistent set of bond orders for ring system containing atom #0.73:1@N1
---
Unknown redo atom type: N3
Traceback (most recent call last):

Any suggestions for correcting these errors will be a good help for me.

Thank you,
