Abstract：To investigate the availability of guaiacol-β-D-glucoside in cigarette flavoring,a comparative study was conducted on the light stability,thermal stability,thermal cracking behavior and cigarette flavoring application effects of guaiacol and guaiacol-β-D-glucoside.The results showed that the light stability and thermal stability of guaiacol-β-D-glucoside were significantly higher than those of guaiacol;The main thermal decomposition product of guaiacol-β-D-glucoside at different temperatures was guaiacol;Guaiacol-β-D-glucoside in cigarettes had different flavoring effects with different flavoring methods,and the release of guaiacol in mainstream smoke of cigarettes with cut tobacco flavoring method was higher than that of cigarette paper flavoring.Under the tobacco flavoring method,whether it was traditional cigarettes or heated cigarettes,the release amount of guaiacol in the particulate phase of mainstream cigarette smoke with guaiacol-β-D-glucoside addition(traditional cigarettes:16.13 μg/cig;heated cigarettes:6.61 μg/cig)were lower than that of guaiacol addition(traditional cigarette:38.97 μg/cig;heated cigarette:21.47 μg/cig).However,the uniformity and stability of guaiacol-β-D-glucoside added cigarettes were better than those of guaiacol.Therefore,guaiacol-β-D-glucoside is a stable and uniformly released flavoring precursor,which has certain advantages when used in traditional cigarettes and heated cigarettes.
