Abstract
⺠N-aryl amino-alcohols were synthesized and evaluated as asphaltene stabilizers. ⺠Boronic acid compounds showed good efficiency as asphaltene aggregation inhibitors. ⺠Asphaltene aggregation inhibition was confirmed by flocculation kinetics. ⺠Boronic acid compounds showed also viscosity reducing effect of a heavy crude oil. ⺠Aggregation and interaction mechanisms were studied via molecular modeling.
