This article offers a concise overview of the main structural characteristics of the 13 known polymorphs of ROY, systematizing their diverse colors in a context where recent data (2022-2024) obtained for novel members of the family are also taken into account, in particular information extracted from our own studies on AcROY, ROY-ol and ROY-CAM. The new findings have extended the spectrum of ROY-based polymorphs' colors to include burgundy and, notably, green tones.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/restrictedAccessAcROYColor PolymorphismFuROYROYROY-CAMROY-olThe ROY Family's Growing Palette: Insights Into Recent Compound Additions and Color Range Expansion - A Short ReviewReview0012672888000012-s2.0-85198030051
