f''(x)=-n^4 e^(i n^2x)

Explanation:

By Euler's Formula: cos nx+i sin nx=e^(i nx),

f(x)=e^(ix)cdot e^(i 3x)cdot e^(i 5x)cdots e^(i (2n-1)x)=e^(i[1+3+5+cdots (2n-1)]x)

By the sum formula: 1+3+5+cdots+(2n-1)=n^2,

f(x)=e^(i n^2x)

By differentiating w.r.t. x,

f'(x)=i n^2 e^(i n^2x)

By differentiating w.r.t.x one more time,

f''(x)=i^2 n^4 e^(i n^2x)=-n^4e^(i n^2x)

I hope that this was clear.
