Charge groups do not have to be neutral, at least if you're using PME for the 
simulation.

Without context (i.e. which atoms are which in the actual structure), it's hard 
to judge the quality.  One thing that sticks out to me is the phenolic group; 
its charge group only contains the OH without the C, which is weird.
