%F For 0<=k<=n, let a(n, k) be the coefficient of x^k in the numerator of the n-th derivative of 1/(1+x^2). If n+k is even, a(n, k) = (-1)^((n+k)/2)*n!*binomial(n+1, k); if n+k is odd, a(n, k)=0.

%e The nonzero coefficients of the numerators starting with the constant term are: 1; -2; -2,6; 24,-24; ...

%t a[n_, k_] := Coefficient[Expand[Together[(1+x^2)^(n+1)*D[1/(1+x^2), {x, n}]]], x, k]; Select[Flatten[Table[a[n, k], {n, 0, 10}, {k, 0, n}]], #!=0&]
