6/5: Slendro (insofar as it resembles a MOS) would<br />be in this region;
9/7: No-5s [[superpyth]]/dominant is around here;
10/7: Pythagorean pentatonic is around here;
3/2: Familiar [[12edo|12-equal]] pentatonic;
8/5: Optimal meantone pentatonic is around here;
5/2: Five-note subset of [[pelog]] (insofar as it<br />resembles a MOS) would be in this region;

From a [[3-limit]] perspective, just make a chain of four 4/3's and octave-reduce, and you end up with pentatonic.

From a [[5-limit]] perspective, the most interesting temperaments with this kind of pentatonic scale are [[meantone]] and [[Pelogic family|mavila]].

There is also the interesting 2.3.7 temperament that tempers out [[64/63]] ([[archy]], "no-fives [[Meantone family #Dominant|dominant]]").
