COMMENTS
Ramanujan theta functions: f(q) (see A121373), phi(q) (A000122), psi(q) (A010054), chi(q) (A000700).
Number 72 of the 74 eta-quotients listed in Table I of Martin (1996).

FORMULA
Expansion of q^(-1/6) * (eta(q^2) * eta(q^6))^3 / (eta(q) * eta(q^3) * eta(q^4) * eta(q^12)) in powers of q.
Euler transform of period 12 sequence [ 1, -2, 2, -1, 1, -4, 1, -1, 2, -2, 1, -2, ...].
G.f. is a period 1 Fourier series which satisfies f(-1 / (432 t)) = 432^(1/2) (t/i) f(t) where q = exp(2 Pi i t).
a(n) = b(6*n + 1) where b(n) is multiplicative with b(2^e) = b(3^e) = 0^e, b(p^e) = (1 + (-1)^e) / 2 if p == 5 (mod 6), b(p^e) = (-1)^(floor(p/6) * e) * t if p == 1 (mod 6) where t = e+1 if p = x^2 + 27*y^2, and t = [1, -1, 0] depending on e (mod 3) otherwise.
G.f.: Product_{k>0} (1 - (-x)^k) * (1 - (-x)^(3*k)).
a(n) = (-1)^n * A030203(n).
EXAMPLE
G.f. = 1 + x - x^2 + x^3 + x^4 - 2*x^5 - x^6 - 2*x^7 - x^10 + x^11 - x^12 + ...
G.f. = q + q^7 - q^13 + q^19 + q^25 - 2*q^31 - q^37 - 2*q^43 - q^61 + q^67 + ...
