In organic Chemistry, a hetero atomĀ is any atom that is not carbon or hydrogen. The term is used to indicate that non- carbons have replaced carbon in the back bone of the molecular structure.

The various hetero atomsĀ are- nitrogen, oxygen, Sulphur, chlorine, phosphorous, bromine and iodine. In short, the molecular structure of a heteroatom misses the carbon and hydrogen and is made of other non-carbon atoms.
