But when i started my first step by using "pdb2gmx -f structure.pdb -water tip3p" i am getting fatal error (Fatal error:Atom CD not found in residue seq.nr. 7 while adding atom

You need an intact model to start with.  There are no Gromacs tools to 
reconstruct missing atoms (aside from H, which is handled by the .hdb file if 
necessary).  You'll have to use external software to model in the missing atom 
before you can proceed.
