Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

Neither p nor q can equal 2, i.e., 2 is not a permissible prime here. - Harvey P. Dale, May 04 2011

EXAMPLE
(3 - 1) divides (5 - 1), so 3 * 5 = 15 is in this sequence.
(5 - 1) divides (17 - 1) so 5 * 17 = 85 is in this sequence.
(5 - 1) does not divide (19 - 1), so 5 * 19 = 95 is not in this sequence.
