Too much escaping in DB?

$code = "my code \'CodeIgniter\Autoloader\'";
        $this->db->table('test')->insert([
            'text' => $code
        ]);[/code]

error:
database: my code 'CodeIgniterAutoloader'

$code = "my code \'CodeIgniter\Autoloader\'";
        $this->db->insert('test', [
            'text' => $code
        ]);

That's right.
