You would want to run the below:
yum groupinstall "Gnome Desktop Environment"

The " character enclosing makes sure that yum does not try to expand 
this to group "gnome" and group "desktop" and "environment"

There are other schemes with escape characters but they just look 
horrible to use in my opinion.
