COMMENTS
a(n) enumerates circular permutations of {1,2,...,n+2} with exactly two successor pairs (i,i+1). Due to cyclicity also (n+2,1) is a successor pair.

FORMULA
E.g.f.: (d^2/dx^2) (x^2/2!)*(1-log(1-x))/e^x.
a(n) = (((n+2)*(n+1))/2)*A000757(n), n>=0.
EXAMPLE
a(2)=0 because the 4!/4 = 6 circular permutations of n=4 elements (1,2,3,4), (1,4,3,2), (1,3,4,2),(1,2,4,3), (1,4,2,3) and (1,3,2,4) have 4,0,1,1,1 and 1 successor pair, respectively.
