I am trying to move all the folders that have the digit 1 in between (glove.6B.60d.txt) and (model)

mv "./*.txt)(1)(m*" "/home/e1"

but I get the error message

mv: cannot stat './*.txt)(1)(m*': No such file or directory

What am I doing wrong? I am in the same folder

Globs are not expanded inside quotes - you'd need something like

./*".txt)(1)(m"*

or

./*.txt")(1)("m*

or

./*.txt)(1)(m*
