Cinquillo

A cinquillo is a typical Cuban/Caribbean rhythmic cell, used in the Cuban contradanza (the "habanera") and the danzón.

[1] The figure is also a common bell pattern found throughout sub-Saharan Africa.

Placing this rhythm in a 2/4 measure produces a strongly syncopated character from the sustained note which replaces an articulated one on the first quarter of the second beat.

The baqueteo is in fact, is an embellishment of clave, as it contains all of that key pattern's strokes.

An example of baqueteo in popular music is the introduction of the 1994 hit "Come Out and Play" by American punk rock band The Offspring.
