Example

a(2) = 19:
    5    2
    3    5
a(3) = 1115:
   11    2    5
    7   11    2
    3    7   11

Mathematica

a[n_] := Max[Table[Abs[Det[HankelMatrix[Join[Drop[per = Part[Permutations[Prime[Range[2 n - 1]]], i], n], {Part[per, n]}], Join[{Part[per, n]}, Drop[per, - n]]]]], {i, (2 n - 1) !}]]; Join[{1}, Array[a, 5]] (* Stefano Spezia, Feb 06 2024 *)
