'''140/81''', the '''septimal semidiminished seventh''' or '''septimal inframinor seventh''' is a [[7-limit]] [[interseptimal]] ratio of about 947 cents. It is flat of a minor seventh [[16/9]] by a septimal quartertone [[36/35]], flat of a subminor seventh [[7/4]] by a syntonic comma [[81/80]], and sharp of a supermajor sixth [[12/7]] by a sensamagic comma [[245/243]].

It is also sharp of a major sixth [[5/3]] by a subminor second [[28/27]]. For this fact it is useful in the [[Canovian chord]] and provides the function of a voice leading down to the major sixth. The [[Canou family|canou temperament]] targets this progression and uses it as one of the generators.
