%F a(n) = Max[FactorInteger[Sum[1/i,{i,1,n}]/Product[1/i,{i,1,n}]]].

%F a(n) = gpf(A096617(n)), where gpf = A006530 is the greatest prime factor, and A096617 is a "reduced" variant of A001008 and thus A000254. [Conjectured; true if this gpf is always > n.] - _M. F. Hasler_, Jul 04 2019

%o (PARI) A120299(n)=A006530(A000254(n)) \\ Probably A000254 can be replaced by (much smaller) A096617. - _M. F. Hasler_, Jul 04 2019
