Comments

a(n) is the least k such that there are exactly n numbers j <= k/2 where both j and k - j are in A002385.

Table of n, a(n) for n=0..37.

Example

a(5) = 1110 because 1110 = 181 + 929 = 191 + 919 = 313 + 797 = 353 + 757 = 383 + 727 is the sum of two palindromic primes in exactly 5 ways, and no smaller even number works.
