%N Smallest k such that n*(n+1)*(n+2)*...*(n+k) is divisible by the product of primes up to n.

%F For any n, a(n)<n. If p is prime, a(p+1)=p-1, a(p+2)=p-2; for k>0, a(A049591(k)+3)=A049591(k)-3 etc. - _Benoit Cloitre_, Oct 24 2002

%e a(8) = 6 as 8*9*10*11*12*13 is not divisible by 2*3*5*7 but 8*9*10*11*12*13*14 is.

%t a[n_] := For[k = 0, True, k++, If[Divisible[Pochhammer[n, k+1], Times @@ Select[Range[2, n], PrimeQ]], Return[k]]]; Array[a, 73] (* _Jean-François Alcover_, Oct 07 2016 *)
