Dear Rosa, here goes my little contribution to try to help you:
http://acpypi.googlecode.com.
For me, no doubt that antechamber is the best tool for getting the
topological information about small molecules (pls, read the wikis in ACPYPI
pages to know more).

The module to generate OPLS/AA is still experimental but if you take
information from MKTOP (which I intend to add to ACPYPI eventually) then you
can get something good enough, specially if you do your homework and read
the papers related to this matter.

Cheers,
Alan
