Hi Dr. Mark

The itp file is as follows.

[ moleculetype ]
; Name            nrexcl
FLU1                3

[ atoms ]
;   nr       type  resnr residue  atom   cgnr     charge       mass
typeB    chargeB      massB
     1   opls_786      1   FLU1      F      0        0
18.99840
     2   opls_786      1   FLU1      F      0        0
18.99840

[ bonds ]
;  ai    aj funct
    1     2     1    ;     F     F
[ pairs ]
;  ai    aj funct
   1      2
[ angles ]
;  ai    aj    ak funct

[ dihedrals ]
;  ai    aj    ak    al funct

The atom type is chosen based on the sigma and epsilon values from the
paper attached to previous mail. [ pre-existing atom type ]

The atom didnt move much further but on equilibration the atoms are totally
dispersed.
