The thing is people do try to pray for the dead. And telling one to not pray for one who sins a sin unto death is telling one not to pray for the dead.
It seems you're looking for a sin or deed that is a "sin unto death" and is unforgivable or that can't be prayed for. But think of it like this if one lives a life full of sin and then subsequently dies in that sinful state, then the life they lived is consider a sin.
For it is a sin to
NOT live a life for God.
It is a sin to live in sin.
It is a sin to die in sin.
So it is a sin to "sin unto death" and it can't be forgiven, and thus we are not to pray for such.
