COMMENT

There are a maximum of 2^n numbers which arise as the products of the subsets of the first n natural numbers. The actual number is smaller because of repetitions. Then a(n) = the greatest prime obtained on adding 1 to each of these numbers.

Different from A089136 (see the comments there).

EXAMPLE

a(5) = 61 = 3*4*5 + 1. 5! + 1, 4!+ 1, are composite and 2*4*5 + 1 = 41 <61, etc.
