COMMENTS
This sequence is defined for n >= 3.
The difference between this sequence and A237354 is that A237354 allows g and h have common factors while in this sequence g and h must be coprime.
The smallest n that makes a(n)=k gives the sequence A182987, Least a+b such that ab=A002110(n).
The largest n that makes a(n)=k forms a sequence starting with 6, 60, 420, 6930, 30030, which are Prime(2)#, 2*Prime(3)#, 2*Prime(4)#, 3*Prime(5)#, where p# denotes the product of prime numbers up to p.
The largest n that makes a(n)=5 is not found yet; it is greater than Prime(6)#.

EXAMPLE
n=3, 3=1+2. 1 has no prime factors. 2 has one. So a(3)=0+1=1;
n=5, 5=1+4=1+2^2, gives number of prime factors 0+1=1, and 5=2+3, gives 1+1=2. So a(5)=2;
...
n=97, 97=1+96=1+2^5*3, gives number of distinct prime factors of g=1 and h=96 0+2=2. Checking all pairs of g, h from 1, 96 through 47, 49 with GCD[g, h]=1, we find that for 97=42+55=2*3*7+5*11 we get 3+2=5 prime factors from g and h. So a(97)=5.
