FORMULA
a(n)=A084318[A002110(n)]
EXAMPLE
n=4: primorial[4]=2310; a(4)=4359293547691=A084318[2310]; the list of iterations:
{2310, 235711, 7151223, 34495309, 41841349, 1116722777, 1958774883, 313113444469, 744730492067, 4359293547691};
at each step the ordered prime factors of previous term are concatenated.
