COMMENTS
a(n+1) = numerator(-Zeta(-n)), n>=1, with Riemann's zeta function. a(1)=-1=-numerator(-Zeta(-0)). For denominators see A075180.
Comment from N. J. A. Sloane, Oct 15 2008: (Start)
It appears that essentially the same sequence of rational numbers arises when we expand 1/(exp(1/x)-1) for large x. Here is the result of applying Bruno Salvy's gdev Maple program (answering a question raised by Roger L. Bagula):
gdev(1/(exp(1/x)-1), x=infinity, 20);
x - 1/2 + (1/12)/x - (1/720)/x^3 + (1/30240)/x^5 - (1/1209600)/x^7 + (1/47900160)/x^9 - (691/1307674368000)/x^11 + (1/74724249600)/x^13 - (3617/10670622842880000)/x^15 + (43867/5109094217170944000)/x^17 - (174611/802857662698291200000)/x^19 + ... (End)

FORMULA
a(n) = numerator(b(n)) with b(1) = -1/2; b(2*k+1) = 0, k >= 1; b(2*k) = B(2*k)/(2*k)! (B(2*n) = B_{2n} Bernoulli numbers: numerators A000367, denominators A002445)
MATHEMATICA
a[m_] := Sum[(-2)^(-k-1) k! StirlingS2[m, k], {k, 0, m}]/(2^(m+1)-1); Table[Numerator[a[i]], {i, 0, 30}] (* Peter Luschny, Apr 29 2009 *)
PROG
