This work aimed to show the potentialities and applications of Jamelão, Syzygium Cumini. To achieve this goal a search was made in patent banks such as Google Patents, National Institute of Industrial Property - INPI and World Intellectual Property Office - WIPO in order to verify the main applications and ways of using the fruit as well as the other parts of the plant. After careful research it was found that the species Syzygium cumini and Syzygium jambolanum present numerous potentialities in the most different branches of science. This includes medicinal properties, dyes, food use and cosmetics. It was observed in the course of the research the interest of many countries to deposit patents using new formulations with the use of these plants. This shows how vast the beneficial effects of Syzygium cumini, a plant, used for shading, whose fruit for not having pronounced economic value is largely discarded.
