aliphatic : one of the major groups of organic compounds characterized by straight-or branched-chain arrangement of the constituent carbon atoms. Aliphatic hydrocarbons are comprised of three subgroups :(1) paraffins(alkanes), all of which are saturated and comparatively unreactive,...(2) olefins(alkenes or alkadienes) which are unsaturated and quite reactive;(3) acetylenes(alkynes) which contain a triple bond and are highly reactive. 3, record 12, English, - saturated%20aliphatic
