Graphical abstract depicting the oxidation of aromatic amines catalyzed by carboxylato-prism[6]arene in water using hydrogen peroxide. The image shows molecular models of supramolecular complexes formed between aniline derivatives and the deep hydrophobic cavity of prism[6]arene. A green arrow indicates the catalytic transformation, highlighting the role of host–guest interactions and the expulsion of frustrated water molecules. The background features stylized bubbles, symbolizing aqueous conditions and molecular dynamics
