Let $\mathcal{S}_q$ denote the group of all square elements in the multiplicative group $\mathbb{F}_q^*$ of a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of odd characteristic containing $q$ elements. Let $\mathcal{O}_q$ be the set of all odd order elements of $\mathbb{F}_q^*$. Then $\mathcal{O}_q$ turns up as a subgroup of $\mathcal{S}_q$. In this paper, we show that $\mathcal{O}_q=\langle4\rangle$ if $q=2t+1$ and, $\mathcal{O}_q=\langle t\rangle $ if $q=4t+1$, where $q$ and $t$ are odd primes. Further, we determine the coefficients of irreducible factors of $x^{2^nt}-1$ using generators of these special subgroups of $\mathbb{F}_q^*$
