Tetradic extensions have different intervals to use, depending on the top note of the triad in root position.

Tetradic extensions (top note 6\15)
Interval	Approx. JI	Shorthand	Name
8\15	10/7	d	Diminished Fifth
9\15	3/2	5	Perfect Fifth
10\15	8/5	m	Minor Sixth
11\15	5/3	6	Major Sixth

Tetradic extensions (top note 7\15)
Interval	Approx. JI	Shorthand	Name
9\15	3/2	5	Fifth
10\15	8/5	m	Minor Sixth
11\15	5/3	6	Major Sixth
12\15	7/4	h	Harmonic Seventh

Tetradic extensions (top note 8\15)
Interval	Approx. JI	Shorthand	Name
10\15	8/5	m	Minor Sixth
11\15	5/3	6	Major Sixth
12\15	7/4	h	Harmonic Seventh
13\15	9/5	n	Neutral Seventh
X	X	7	Seventh

X: Extend the chord by the corresponding third in the chord (only applicable to triforce, diminished and wolf chords).

Tetradic extensions (top note 9\15)
Interval	Approx. JI	Shorthand	Name
11\15	5/3	6	Sixth
12\15	7/4	h	Harmonic Seventh
13\15	9/5	n	Neutral Seventh
14\15	15/8	M	Major Seventh
X	X	7	Seventh

X: Extend the chord by the corresponding third in the chord (only applicable to subminor, minor and major chords).

Tetradic extensions (top note 10\15)
Interval	Approx. JI	Shorthand	Name
12\15	7/4	6	Sixth
13\15	9/5	n	Neutral Seventh
14\15	15/8	7	(Major) Seventh

Assuming the root note is C,
[0,3,8,11] → Ct6
[0,4,8,12] → Cd7
[0,5,9,13] → Cn
Etc.
