1/6-comma meantone is the tuning of meantone temperament which tunes the fifth as the sixth root of 45/4, or in other words 698.371 cents. This means the fifth is flattened by 1/6 of the syntonic comma (81/80) of 21.506 cents, which is to say by 3.584 cents, hence the name 1/6-comma meantone. In 1/6-comma meantone, the diatonic tritone 45/32 is tuned justly, and it can be characterized fully as the regular tuning tempering out 81/80 and tuning 2 and 45/32 justly. 55edo and 67edo approximate it flatly and sharply, respectively, while 122edo using the c val does so near perfectly.
