Dipromethia, or diaschismic promethia, is a 5-limit comma that is the difference between 61 2048/2025's and the octave.
Temperaments
Tempering it out results in the dipromethium temperament, which sets 61 2048/2025s equal to the octave. Furthermore, since it is the difference between 45/32 and 64/45 tritones, tempering this comma out sets them to 30\61 and 31\61 respectively.
From a regular temperament perspective, it may be more natural to use the promethium temperament, splitting the generator fifth in two and described as 183 & 2684, due to its consistency in the 17-odd-limit.
