COMMENTS
All terms except the first one are multiples of 3. - Zak Seidov, Feb 24 2006
And because of this, all the primes except for the first one are congruent to 1 (mod 6). - Robert G. Wilson v, Aug 05 2014
For any n in this sequence, 3*(2*n^2 + 1) has the same nonzero digits as its prime factors in base 2n. - Ely Golden, Dec 12 2016
