(-)-Menthol has been widely used in clinical medicine, flavor, and fragrance. However, high volatility, short retention time, low solubility in water, and whisker growth of menthol are crucial problems for its application. In this paper, (-)-menthol-β-cyclodextrin inclusion complex was fabricated to solve these problems. The product was characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis. The results showed that menthol was successfully encapsulated in the cavity of β-cyclodextrin. Menthol itself vaporized almost completely at around 120oC, while the maximum menthol release rate occurred at 267.5o C after the formation of the inclusion complex. The stability and retention time were improved. The menthol release reaction order, apparent activation energy and the pre-exponential factor were obtained and their values were 0, 142.9 kJ/mol and 1.6 × 1013 respectively. The structure of menthol-β-cyclodextrin inclusion complex was investigated by molecular simulation and the minimum energy, –116.7 kJ/mol, was obtained at –0.8 × 10–10 m.

Furfuryl mercaptan has the aroma characteristics of coffee. However, it is unstable during storage of coffee brew and roasted coffee. In order to enhance the stability of furfuryl mercaptan, furfuryl mercaptan-β-cyclodextrin inclusion complex was synthesized using the precipitation method in this work. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction, and thermogravimetric analysis (TG) were used to characterize the resulting products. The interaction of furfuryl mercaptan with β-cyclodextrin was inve-stigated by the molecular mechanics (MM) method. These changes in FTIR and XRD gave supporting evidence for the successful formation of furfuryl mercaptan-β-cyclodextrin inclusion complex. The TG results showed that the formation of furfuryl mercaptan-β-cyclodextrin inclusion complex could improve the thermal stability of furfuryl mercaptan and provide a long-lasting effect. The structure of furfuryl mercaptan-β-cyclodextrin inclusion complex with the minimum energy was obtained by MM2 calculation, and the minimum binding energy was –77.0 kJ mol–1 at –1.96 × 10–10 m.
