Numbers that are odd squares, 7 is their smallest prime factor, and are refactorable.
See A033950 for references. For any prime p, p^(p-1) is the smallest element of RF(p), the refactorable numbers whose smallest prime factor is p. Thus 7^(7-1)=117649 is the first element. Other elements would also be 7^6*17^6 or 7^16*17^6. Here are the prime factorizations for the first 49 elements of RF7: (7^6), (7^6)*(11^6), (7^6)*(13^6), (7^6)*(17^6), (7^6)*(19^6), (7^6)*(23^6), (7^6)*(29^6), (7^6)*(31^6), (7^6)*(37^6), (7^6)*(41^6), (7^6)*(43^6), (7^6)*(47^6), (7^6)*(53^6), (7^6)*(59^6), (7^6)*(61^6), (7^6)*(67^6), (7^6)*(71^6), (7^6)*(73^6), (7^6)*(79^6), (7^6)*(83^6), (7^6)*(89^6), (7^12)*(13^6), (7^6)*(97^6), (7^6)*(101^6), (7^6)*(103^6), (7^6)*(107^6), (7^6)*(109^6), (7^6)*(113^6), (7^6)*(127^6), (7^6)*(131^6), (7^6)*(137^6), (7^6)*(139^6), (7^6)*(11^6)*(13^6), (7^6)*(149^6), (7^6)*(151^6), (7^6)*(157^6), (7^6)*(163^6), (7^6)*(167^6), (7^6)*(13^12), (7^6)*(173^6), (7^6)*(179^6), (7^6)*(181^6), (7^6)*(11^6)*(17^6), (7^6)*(191^6), (7^6)*(193^6), (7^6)*(197^6), (7^6)*(199^6), (7^6)*(11^6)*(19^6), (7^6)*(211^6).
