Hopefully, this is better and helps:
Code:
# Set run array
array=( $(awk -F '\n' -v RS="" -v ref="$s5" '$0 ~ ref {d=split($0, val, " "); for(i=2;i<d;i+=2) printf "%s ",val[i]; printf "\n"}' list | tr -d '\r') )  ## match run in rna.barcode and extract patient

# iterate through array
for ID in "${array[*]}" ; do
echo "$ID" > /tmp/out.txt
       echo "( cd /path/to/${ID}*/path/to/folder && xec sshpass -f file.txt scp -- *.png* xxx@xxx.xx.xx.xxx:/path/to/destination/${ID}-cn_results)"
       sshpass -f out.txt ssh -o strictHostKeyChecking=no -t xxx@xxx.xx.xx.xx
done

Contents of out --- This is array with all samples one one line ---
Code:
ID1 ID2

echo to terminal
Code:
( cd /path/to/ID1 ID2*/*/path/to/folder && exec sshpass -f file.txt scp -- *.png* xxx@xxx.xx.xx.xxx:/path/to/destination/ID1 ID2-cn_results.png)

Code:
├──/path/to/   ---- common path after ssh ---
│   ├── ID1*   --- unique ${ID}* represents random text ---
│   │   └── /this/ID1/folder
│   ├── ID2*   --- unique ${ID}* represents random text ---
│   │   └── /this/ID2/folder
Description:

After ssh to the common path on the server, each unique ID is used to further navigate to folder. In each folder there is a png (cn_results), that the unique ID is append to (ID-cn_results) and this 
append file is scp to xxx@xxx.xx.xx.xxx:/path/to/destination. It seems that since array is one line both are being used and that is causing the error?
