Quintile reaches the interval class of 5 by five perfect fifths (i.e. a major seventh) plus two periods of 1/5-octave. It is a member of the [[syntonic–diatonic equivalence continuum]] with {{nowrap| ''n'' {{=}} 5 }}, so it equates a [[256/243|Pythagorean limma]] with a stack of five [[81/80|syntonic commas]].

The temperament was first introduced by [[Mike Battaglia]] in 2011 along with other temperaments in the continuum mentioned above<ref>[https://yahootuninggroupsultimatebackup.github.io/tuning/topicId_99315.html#99323 Yahoo! Tuning Group | ''Some new 5-limit microtemperaments'']</ref>. It did not get named until 2012, when [[Petr Pařízek]] called it ''pental''<ref>[https://yahootuninggroupsultimatebackup.github.io/tuning/topicId_104270.html Yahoo! Tuning Group | ''2D temperaments, part II -- new 5-limit temperaments'']</ref>. In 2024, the community has decided to rename it for fear of confusion.
