Which mechanisms is more appropriate for this Friedel-Crafts Reaction: deviated

Question

Which mechanisms is more appropriate for this Friedel-Crafts Reaction:

deviated from the order (if it did deviate). When reaction mechanisms are discussed, students often forget that when chemicals are mixed together, there are stochastic interactions and ail things are possible. However, some interactions are more probable than others and that is what leads to the reactions mechanisms that you are taught. In proposing an arrow pushing mechanism for the synthesis of di-tert-butylbiphenyl, some students will either propose Mechanism A or B: Mechanism A Mechanism B Compare the two mechanisms and discuss why one mechanism is more probable than the other.

Explanation / Answer

mechanisms (B) is more appropriate for this Reaction.................. because in mechanism A there is more +R group so less reactive... in mechanism B less + R group so more reactive.... so that, Mechanism B is correct ans.
