A family of highly porous homochiral, racemic, and meso metal-organicframeworks (MOFs) were synthesized based on a new elongated tetra-carboxylate ligand and the copper paddle-wheel building units. These MOFs exhibited remarkable catenation isomerism that is controlled by both chirality of the bridging ligand and the size of solvent molecules. The ability to manipulate framework interpenetration is
