Or numbers n such that A088218(n) is coprime to n.
The power of primes (A000961) are terms of this sequence.
From Robert Israel, Jan 26 2016: (Start)
By Lucas's theorem, these are the n such that for every prime p dividing n, no base-p digit of n is greater than the corresponding base-p digit of 2n-1. Equivalently (Kummer's theorem), there are no carries in base-p addition of n and n-1. Thus if p is odd, each base-p digit of n is less than p/2.
The only even terms are powers of 2.
All terms divisible by 3 are in A005836, and all terms divisible by 5 are in A037453. (End)
A082916 (after 0) lists the odd terms of this sequence. - Bruno Berselli, Jan 26 2015

Examples

			For n=3, binomial(2*n-1, n) = binomial(5, 3) = 10 and 10 is coprime to 3, so 3 is in the sequence.
