Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

A075611
a(1) = 1, a(n) = smallest number > a(n-1) such that concatenation a(k) a(n) is prime for all k = 1 to n-1. Stop if no such number exists.

COMMENTS
The sequence is probably finite.
EXAMPLE
a(5)=433 since 1433, 3433, 7433 and 73433 are all primes and for every 73<x<433, at least one of 1x, 3x, 7x, 73x is not prime.
