Quintupole
Quintupole is a temperament for the 7, 11, 13, 17, and 19 prime limits. It is a member of quintaleap family, octagar temperaments, and mistismic temperaments. It has a semitone inverval which represents 18/17, 35/33, 52/49, 55/52 and 135/128 as a generator, five of them give a fourth (~2.2 cents flat of 4/3), sixteen give 5/2, and thirty-four give seventh harmonic. 121EDO is an excellent tuning for quintupole, with a semitone generator of 10\121, and MOS of 13, 25, 37, 49, 61, 73, 85, 97, or 109 notes are available.

Interval chain
Quintupole is considered as a cluster temperament with twelve clusters of notes in an octave. The chroma interval between adjacent notes in each cluster represents 100/99~120/119~171/170~196/195~209/208~210/209~221/220~225/224~289/288~324/323~441/440~513/512 all tempered together.
