Have you considered looking at the BN_bn2bin documentation?

   https://www.openssl.org/docs/man1.0.2/crypto/BN_bn2bin.html

   SYNOPSIS:
       int BN_bn2bin(const BIGNUM *a, unsigned char *to);

   DESCRIPTION:

       BN_bn2bin() converts the absolute value of a into big-endian form and
       stores it at to. to must point to BN_num_bytes(a) bytes of memory.
