COMMENTS
The sequence is finite because among 9 or more consecutive odd numbers there is always a multiple of 3*3. - Rémy Sigrist, Dec 19 2018
EXAMPLE
a(1) = 15 = A024556(1).
a(2) = 33 because 33 = 3*11 and 35 = 5*7 is the smallest pair of odd squarefree composite numbers. 31 and 37 are prime.
a(8) = 1343: 1343=17*79, 1345=5*269, 1347=3*449, 1349=19*71, 1351=7*193, 1353=3*11*41, 1355=5*271, 1357=23*59, whereas 1341=3^2*149 and 1359=3^2*151 are not squarefree.
MATHEMATICA
a[n_] := For[k = 1, True, k = k+2, If[AllTrue[Range[k, k+2(n-1), 2], CompositeQ[#] && SquareFreeQ[#]&], Return[k]]];
