%N Number of chiral pairs of color loops of length n with exactly 5 different colors.

%F a(n) = -(k!/4)*(S2(floor((n+1)/2),k) + S2(ceiling((n+1)/2),k)) + (k!/(2n))*Sum_{d|n} phi(d)*S2(n/d,k), with k=5 different colors used and where S2(n,k) is the Stirling subset number A008277.

%F a(n) = (A052825(n) - A056491(n)) / 2.

%F a(n) = A305541(n,5).

%F G.f.: -30 * x^8 * (1+x)^2 / Product_{j=1..5} (1-j*x^2) - Sum_{d>0} (phi(d)/(2d)) * (log(1-5x^d) - 5*log(1-4x^d) + 10*log(1-3x^3) - 10*log(1-2x^d) + 5*log(1-x^d)).

%e For a(5)=12, the chiral pairs of color loops are ABCDE-AEDCB, ABCED-ADECB, ABDCE-AECDB, ABDEC-ACEDB, ABECD-ADCEB, ABEDC-ACDEB, ACBDE-AEDBC, ACBED-ADEBC, ACDBE-AEBCD, ACEDB-ABDEC, ADBCE-AECBD, ADBEC-ACEBD, and ADCBE-AEBCD.
