Subject: AMBER: dummy atom other than H

Dear ambers,

how do I proceed if I want to open a ring for thermodynamic integration? I
have an isoindole ring, and I would like to make a C in the 5-ring an H, and
bind this H to the atom next to it. How can I tell sander to bind the
resulting H to one side, and remove the bond to the other? In smiles it
would look something like [nH]1cc2ccccc2c1 -> NC=C1=CC=CC=C1.

Thanks for helpful suggestions,

Carsten
