number sequence

Hi:

How should I go about trying to determine the equation that results in
a number sequence like this:

2, 6, 22, 86, 342...

I see the difference between each term is a power of 2 but am stuck on
how to determine equation. e.g. difference between 86 and 342 is 2^8.

thanks,
russ
