FORMULA
a(n) = denom(A001818(n)*(-1)^(n-1)/(2^(2*n)*(2*n+1)!)). - Sean A. Irvine, Mar 29 2014
a(n) is the denominator of(-1)^(n-1)*Cn-1{1^2..(2n-1)^2}/((2n+1)!*2^(2n)), where Cn{1^2..(2n+1)^2} is equal to 1 when n=0, otherwise, it is the sum of the products of all possible combinations, of size n, of the numbers (2k+1)^2 with k=0,1,..,n. - Sean A. Irvine, after Ruperto Corso, Mar 29 2014
MAPLE
with(combinat): a:=n->add(mul(k, k=j), j=choose([seq((2*i-1)^2, i=1..n)], n))*(-1)^(n-1)/(2^(2*n)*(2*n+1)!):seq(a(n), n=0..20); # Sean A. Irvine, after Ruperto Corso
