%N a(n) is the smallest odd number m such that 2^n*m has n digits but has at most two distinct digits.

%C For each n, a(n) exists and is <= 5^(n-1).

%e a(13)=135646011 because 2^13*135646011=1111212122112 has 13 digits with two distinct digits and 135646011 is the smallest odd number m such that 2^13*m has these properties.

%t a[1]=1;a[n_]:=(For[m=Floor[5^(n-1)/4],!(Length[Union[IntegerDigits [2^n*(2m-1)]]]==2&&Length[IntegerDigits[2^n*(2m-1)]]==n),m++ ];2m-1 );Do[Print[a[n]],{n,14}]
