You've got too many quotes in the second dblink call (as indeed the
error message shows, if you look carefully).

I'm also pretty sure that the first PERFORM isn't really establishing a
connection --- it looks to me like all it's doing is evaluating a
constant string.  You seem to be confused about the difference between
PERFORM and EXECUTE.  There is no need for EXECUTE here, so this
would be sufficient:
	PERFORM dblink_connect('con', v_constr);
