d) In any Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction starting with benzene and using one equivalent of the alkylating reagent, there is a always a small amount of disubstituted product which is formed. By contrast, such outcomes are not typically observed for any halogenation reactions starting from benzene and similarly using EAS chemistry. Please explain the basis for this apparent dichotomy.
