If we have "smallest" (all characters minimal ASCII) pub address 1111111111111111111114oLvT2 which does not work in the network,

and smallest pub address 111111111111111111112BEH2ro which does work,

what would be the "smallest" xprv key for Bitcoin mainnet that will work?

What do you mean by "minimal ASCII". Wouldn't that be ASCII character 0x00 "NULL"? Wouldn't the minimal printable ASCII character be 0x20 "SPACE" and the minimal ASCII digit be 0x30 "0"?

@RedGrittyBrick yes, that's what I mean. In this case seems like the minimal will be 1.
