Answer:

Phenols can undergo Friedel-‐Crafts alkylation. It's best to use reagents that can generate the electrophile without the use of Lewis acids. Friedel-‐Crafts acylation on phenols require harsher conditions, e.g., high temperature. The phenol becomes a complex with AlCl3 and consequently its activity is decreased.
