It seems that every thing is ok

Every thing seems normal if you make a overall view. But after checking 
one by one all the monomers one of them seem to kill itself.The main 
part of the sistem is very rigid with many impropials defined along it, 
benzene-N=N-benzene ( it must be all in a plane). I notice when I was 
trying to parametrice the molecule that if I try to keep it complete 
plane whit impropial then the structure crash in a dyanmic, It seems 
like the molecule enter in a kind of resonance effect that finish with 
unnatural bond legth and angles and the crashing of the system. I pass 
through this problem changing some impropials for propials with a loose 
in the planarity. It seems that this fenomenom is crashing my system 
again. Have you any suggestion? Thank you.
