n divides a(n-1) and a(n+1) for n = {1, 2, 8, 11, 16, 19, 23, 31, 32, 43, 64, 67, 71, ...} which include all powers of 2 except 2^2 and some odd primes of the form 4k+3 belonging to A002145.
p^2 divides a(p-1) for odd prime p = 71.
p^2 divides a(p+1) for odd prime p = 23.
a(n) is prime for n = {3, 4, 6, 8, 16, 26, 64, 82, 90, 118, 194, 214, ...} = A007749; A007749(n) = 2*A091415(n-1) for n > 1. Corresponding primes of the form n!! - 1 are listed in A117141, cf. also A093173.
