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”).

A091417
Integers n which are not the difference of 2 integers A and B where A is less than or equal to n such that AB+1 and AB-1 are both primes. In other words, the product A*B cannot be the middle integer of a twin prime pair.

COMMENTS
Sequence may be finite. Next term after 1890 if it exists must be greater than 867750.
EXAMPLE
8 is a member: 8 is the difference between these pairs of integers: (9-1) (10-2) (11-3) (12-4) (13-5) (14-6) (15-7) (16-8). Their products (9*1) (10*2), etc. plus and minus 1 are not primes and therefore the products cannot be the middle integers of twin prime sets.
