   You have missed 2.5.3 part which states:   
   "If the next character begins a sequence of characters that could be   
   the prefix and initial double quote of a raw string literal, such as   
   R", the next preprocessing token shall be a raw string   
   literal. Between the initial and final double quote characters of the   
   raw string, any transformations performed in phases 1 and 2   
   (trigraphs, universal-character-names, and line splicing) are   
   reverted;"
