Python/Json:Expecting property name enclosed in double quotes

This:

{
    'http://example.org/about': {
        'http://purl.org/dc/terms/title': [
            {'type': 'literal', 'value': "Anna's Homepage"}
        ]
     }
}

is not JSON.
This:

{
     "http://example.org/about": {
         "http://purl.org/dc/terms/title": [
             {"type": "literal", "value": "Anna's Homepage"}
          ]
      }
}

is JSON.

EDIT:
Some commenters suggested that the above is not enough.
JSON specification - RFC7159 states that a string begins and ends with quotation mark. That is ".
Single quoute ' has no semantic meaning in JSON and is allowed only inside a string.

as JSON only allows enclosing strings with double quotes you can manipulate the string like this:

s = s.replace("\'", "\"")

if your JSON holds escaped single-quotes (\') then you should use the more precise following code:

import re
p = re.compile('(?<!\\\\)\'')
s = p.sub('\"', s)

This will replace all occurrences of single quote with double quote in the JSON string s and in the latter case will not replace escaped single-quotes.

You can also use js-beautify which is less strict:

$ pip install jsbeautifier
$ js-beautify file.js

import ast
import json

inpt = {'http://example.org/about': {'http://purl.org/dc/terms/title':
                                     [{'type': 'literal', 'value': "Anna's Homepage"}]}}

json_data = ast.literal_eval(json.dumps(inpt))

print(json_data)

this will solve the problem.

In my case, double quotes was not a problem.

Last comma gave me same error message.

{'a':{'b':c,}}
           ^

To remove this comma, I wrote some simple code.

import json

with open('a.json','r') as f:
    s = f.read()
    s = s.replace('\t','')
    s = s.replace('\n','')
    s = s.replace(',}','}')
    s = s.replace(',]',']')
    data = json.loads(s)

And this worked for me.
