We discussed this a few months ago and it is not possible to support LaTeX in Texinfo files. If writing equations you need to stick to plain TeX. A small number of LaTeX commands, such as \frac, can be provided as a convenience, but proper LaTeX compatibility should be considered a complete impossibility. > With the latest texinfo mathjax improvements, texinfo works better with > preview in emacs, than with ob-latex. That's good to hear.
