%N a(n) is the smallest divisor of (n+2)*(n+3) not yet in the sequence.

%C a(n) is the smallest divisor of A002378(n+2) not yet in the sequence.

%C The numbers that are smaller than the preceding terms are: 3, 5, 9, 17, 33, 44, 55, 65, 90, 99, 143, 208, ...

%e For n = 0, a(0) = 1 since 1 is the smallest divisor of 6 not yet in the sequence.

%e For n = 3, a(3) = 3 since 3 is the smallest divisor of 30 not yet in the sequence.
