You're not counting/escaping your quotes correctly.  That literal is
unterminated:

'        opening quote
''        quoted quote (to put a quote in the string)
\'        escaped quote (another way to do the same)
''        quoted quote
oops        you're still inside the literal

I don't know what combination of quotes and/or backslashes you actually
meant to insert, but this command is wrong.
