How do you harmonize scales like

  • C C# F F# Bb
  • Whole tone scale : C D E F# Ab Bb

?

(The scales above are just examples.)
Scales like these do not seem to bias to Major or Minor harmony, right?
What chords do you use/hear when these kind of scales are used?

The whole tone scale is generally associated with the augmented https://forum.tuteehub.com/tag/chord">chord (+https://forum.tuteehub.com/tag/5">5 triad or +7 or 7#https://forum.tuteehub.com/tag/5">5, in the jazz notation).

Your first "scale" is not really a scale. C7sus4 b9 #11 matches, but so do does Bb -7 9 b13 / C
