The exotic states with the quark flavor of
are recently observed in the mass spectrum of
in
by the LHCb collaboration. To explore the nature of
, except for analyzing their masses and decay widths as usually did in literatures, the study of their production mechanism in B-meson weak decays would provide another important information. The amplitude of
is non-factorizable. We consider the final-state-interaction effects and calculate them via the rescattering mechanism. The measured branching fractions of
are revealed. It is manifested by
and
that the rescattering mechanism can result in the relatively large branching fractions. The similar processes of
are also analyzed. The isospins of
can be investigated by
decays.
