Slight confusion on your part - it works ok if you omit the backslash.
That single quote is just used by the LilyPond log to delineate the
syntax it is objecting to, it's not part of the input.

a subtle difference but critical. The double-quotes character " is a
single character and must be escaped, the open-quote “ is a multi-byte
character and must not. The multi-line text interface provides a menu
item to let you insert open and close quotes, but it would seem you
then added a \ to them making LilyPond throw and error, but as LilyPond
then goes on to generate the correct output Denemo didn't notice when
doing continuous typesetting :(

Ah, the bug is that Denemo doesn't report the error in all
circumstances - I've filed a bug report.
