Bash script execution in Mac os: directory not exists error

I have a command like this

bash -c 'cd \"/Users/Shammon/Projects/t2i-tokenisation-corda/build/nodes/AGCSIT\" ; \"/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/adoptopenjdk-8.jdk/Contents/Home/jre/bin/java\" \"-Dcapsule.jvm.args=-agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=5008 -javaagent:drivers/jolokia-jvm-1.6.0-agent.jar=port=7008,logHandlerClass=net.corda.node.JolokiaSlf4jAdapter\" \"-Dname=AGCSIT\" \"-jar\" \"/Users/Shammon/Projects/t2i-tokenisation-corda/build/nodes/AGCSIT/corda.jar\" && exit'

When I run this in match terminal, I am getting the following error

bash: line 0: cd: "/Users/Shammon/Projects/t2i-tokenisation-corda/build/nodes/AGCSIT": No such file or directory bash: "/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/adoptopenjdk-8.jdk/Contents/Home/jre/bin/java": No such file or directory

But the paths are valid ones

Escaping the double quotes causes the shell to look treat them as literal parts of the filenames and parameters, instead of just it into a single token. There's no need to escape the quotes.

bash -c 'cd "/Users/Shammon/Projects/t2i-tokenisation-corda/build/nodes/AGCSIT" ; "/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/adoptopenjdk-8.jdk/Contents/Home/jre/bin/java" "-Dcapsule.jvm.args=-agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=5008 -javaagent:drivers/jolokia-jvm-1.6.0-agent.jar=port=7008,logHandlerClass=net.corda.node.JolokiaSlf4jAdapter" "-Dname=AGCSIT" "-jar" "/Users/Shammon/Projects/t2i-tokenisation-corda/build/nodes/AGCSIT/corda.jar"'

There's also no need for && exit at the end. When the command is done, the shell automatically exits.
