Abstract

Computational chemistry is an area of chemistry​​ in growing, making use, among others, of quantum chemistry and molecular mechanics methods to investigate in detail chemical processes. Due to the increase in processing and storage capacity of computers, together with development of more efficient algorithms, computational chemistry is currently an attractive tool for studies in physics, engineering, materials and biology. If on the one hand computational chemistry occupies a prominent place in academic research, same is not true in the field of intellectual protection. However, due to the multidisciplinary nature, we believe that computational chemist can contribute to generation of technological products. Therefore, the main aim of this work was to analyze, through a survey of the patent deposit, the current scenario involving the application of computational chemistry in studies of commercial interest. Collected data evidenced a negative reality in this scenario, which can generate a vast field to be explored.
