No you dont need a concentration check. Immediate actions are handled like swift actions with the exception that you can use them everytime.
Cast a Quickened Spell
You can cast a quickened spell (see the Quicken Spell metamagic feat), or any spell whose casting time is designated as a free or swift action, as a swift action. Only one such spell can be cast in any round, and such spells don't count toward your normal limit of one spell per round. Casting a spell as a swift action doesn't incur an attack of opportunity.

I don't see off the top of my head anywhere saying that you don't need to make the concentration check for casting while grappled.
Or for trying to cast Feather Fall while entangled in a net that has been thrown over the edge of the cliff.

In action types, Swift actions do not provoke attacks of op, however, nothing about them not attracting a con check for other reasons.
For clarity though, lets remove the spell your trying to cast (and the reason your making a con check) for a second and go generic.
You are taking continuous damage from a source and attempt to cast a spell. The fact that your feet are on fire is no more or less distracting is your doing a quick spell as opposed to a long one. It still hurts. That a succubus has her tongue down your throat is no more less distracting that what your going to do is 'just gunna take a second' she's still a good kisser. Or for a more obvious route... Your tangled up in a net... the spell you want to cast has all 3 components. Does it make sense that making it quickened means that your able to waggle your fingers better in the net?
And as to that spell... a 'de-grapple' as an immediate 1st level spell is pretty obscene if it doesn't have some drawbacks (like you near can't use it on yourself).
Yes you do!
Depending on the situation, continuing damage, being grappled, falling has to be distracting unless you can fly and so forth.
Don't forget that somebody with a readied action can also disrupt your spell forcing that concentration check!
