'''Whitewood''' is the [[rank-2 temperament]] tempering out [[2187/2048]], the Pythagorean chromatic semitone. As a result, the [[circle of fifths]] closes after seven steps, and every interval on the chain of fifths is [[neutral (interval quality)|neutral]] in quality. The whitewood temperament adds prime [[5/1|5]] as an independent [[generator]], adding major and minor intervals on either side of the neutral ones.
 
The canonical extenison to prime [[7/1|7]] adds [[36/35]] to the commas, thus equating [[5-limit]] major and minor intervals with [[7-limit]] subminor and supermajor ones. It finds [[7/4]] at the minor seventh, [[7/6]] at the minor third, and [[9/7]] at the major third.
