FORMULA
E.g.f.: Product_{k>0} (1+sinh(x^k/k)).
a(n) ~ c * n!, where c = A270614 = Product_{k>=1} ((1 + sinh(1/k)) / exp(1/k)) = 0.625635801977949844... . - Vaclav Kotesovec, Mar 20 2016
EXAMPLE
a(2)=1 because we have (12) ((1)(2) does not qualify). a(4)=14 because the following 10 permutations of 4 do not qualify: (1)(2)(3)(4), (14)(2)(3), (1)(24)(3), (1)(2)(34), (13)(2)(4), (13)(24), (1)(23)(4), (14)(23), (12)(3)(4) and (12)(34).
