Second the normal loopback address is 127.0.0.1, so you need to add another loopback interface address of 127.0.0.5 if you expect to accept a packet re-addressed by DNAT to 127.0.0.5.
If those are corrected then what you need to change the destination address of a packet generated locally is something like this in /etc/sysconfig/iptables:
*nat
:PREROUTING ACCEPT [0:0]
:POSTROUTING ACCEPT [0:0]
:OUTPUT ACCEPT [0:0]
-A OUTPUT -d 192.168.100.99/32 -j DNAT --to-destination 127.0.0.5
