--read-mismatches 4\
--read-gap-length 4\
--read-edit-dist 4\
--read-realign-edit-dist 0\
--min-anchor 4\

--transcriptome-index= transcriptome/\

You have a space in -- splice-mismatch. As mentioned in the comment, you should not be using tophat for anything.

Please do not use Tophat anymore, the author himself said it's outdated
HISAT2 and STAR are both splice aware solution
Hmmm the command you show doesn't match with the error you get?
