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 60th year, we have over 367,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

COMMENTS
Any even number 2n which fails the Goldbach condition (i.e., is not expressible as the sum of two primes) cannot be a prime plus 3 (by definition), but it must also be the case that the two even numbers immediately smaller than 2n (i.e., 2n-2 and 2n-4) also cannot be a prime plus 3, because if they were, 2n would be a prime plus 5 or a prime plus 7 and would satisfy Goldbach. Thus any even number which fails the Goldbach condition must fall in this sequence. Note: none of the given members of the sequence fails Goldbach.
