I think the unexpected token is referring to the word "white".

try this:

Option 1:

<adaptive-icon
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <background android:drawable="#FFFFFF"/>
    <foreground android:drawable="@mipmap/ic_launcher_foreground"/>
</adaptive-icon>

Or Option 2:

<adaptive-icon
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <background android:drawable="@color/white"/>
    <foreground android:drawable="@mipmap/ic_launcher_foreground"/>
</adaptive-icon>

and add to your colors.xml

<color name="white">#FFFFFF</color>
