What is mean by acyclic isomers?With an example.
pratikshashinde:
The lowercase prefix n- denotes the straight-chain isomer; for example, n-butane is straight-chain butane, whereas i-butane is isobutane. Cycloalkanes areisomers of alkenes, not of alkanes, because the ring's closure involves a C=C bond. Having no rings (aromatic or otherwise), all open-chain compounds are aliphatic.

open chain compound. many of the simple molecules of organic chemistry , such as the Alkanes and alkenes , have both linear and ring isomers , that is both acrylic and cyclic , with the latter often classified as aromatic. For those with 4 or more carbons, the linear forms can have straight chain or branched chain isomers. In biochemistry , some isomers are more prevalent than others .FOR EXAMPLE in living organisms , the open chain isomers of glucose usually exists only transiently , in small amounts.
