In most of the nitration processes heat is require but relatively (as compare to sulphonation) low temperature is due to volatile nature of nitrating agent which is usually nitric acid, at higher temperature nitric acid may decompose or may escape from the reaction vessel.

Why is -NH2 group of aniline protected before nitration?

Aromatic amines cannot be nitrated directly because they give unexpected oxidation products along with nitration products. This is because, HNO3 is not only a nitrating agent but also acts as a strong oxidizing agent. Therefore, to solve this problem, nitration is carried out by protecting the -NH2 group by acetylation. The acetyl group is finally removed by hydrolysis to give a mixture of o- and p-nitro amines.
