Classification of stilbenoid compounds by entropy of artificial intelligence.

Highlights: [•] Sixty-six stilbenoids are classified into a periodic table by information entropy. [•] Eight features classify structurally the stilbenoids: 1–5 (group) and 6–8 (period). [•] Stilbenoids in the same group and period are suggested to show maximum similarity. [•] Those with glycoxyl groups esterified with benzoic acids are great antioxidants. [•] The experimental data confirm our results of the periodic table. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
