Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

A374351
Lexicographically earliest infinite sequence of distinct positive integers such that for any triple i,j,k of consecutive terms, gcd(i,k) = 1 and A007947(i*j*k) is a term in A002110.

COMMENTS
In other words a(n) is least k such that (k, a(n-2)) = 1 and rad(a(n-2)*a(n-1)*k) is a primorial number (alternatively i*j*k is in A055932).
Conjectures: A permutation of the positive integers, a(n) = prime p (> 2) iff p is least unused odd term, 2|i, and rad(i*j) is a primorial number divisible by all primes < p but not by p; primes appear in natural order.

EXAMPLE
a(1,2,3) = 1,2,3 the lexicographically earliest triple of numbers satisfying the definition: 3 and 1 are coprime whilst 1*2*3 = 6 = A002110(2).
a(4) = 5 because (2,5) = 1 and 2*3*5 = 30 = A002110(3).
a(9,10,11) = 8,12,15 and 7 is the smallest novel number prime to 12 and rad(12*15*7) = 210 = A002110(4).
