%N Lexically first sequence of distinct positive integers such that a(n) is coprime to the next a(n) elements.

%C Described in this form, A090252 would be "lexically first sequence of positive integers such that a(n) is coprime to the next n elements".

%C (And A247665 would be "lexically first sequence of integers >= 2 such that a(n) is coprime to the next n elements". - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Nov 01 2014)

%C All values up to a(1000000) are either prime powers or semiprimes, except when n is in (868, 947, 993, 1069, 1205, 1431, 854300) with values respectively (172, 45, 75, 135, 225, 375, 9475). This suggests the sequence is unlikely to be a permutation of the integers.

%C If, mimicking A247665, one starts with a(1)=2 and uses the same rule (always using distinct numbers >= 2) one obtains A249064 again, without the leading 1. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Nov 01 2014
