it does not work

What do you mean by "does not work"? It looks to me like the document
contains the formula and -- at a quick glance -- ought to be legal XML
markup. I don't know enough TeX to comment on whether the formula is
legal TeX markup, and you haven't told us enough about what you're doing
with the document to comment on how it will be processed...

Yes I know , because I am using Oxygen.
I change the value of two parameters :
tex.math.in.alt="latex"
passivetex.extensions="1"the tex formula is good .And the result I have is
this : (it does not transform the equation)**************************Tex

Your example does not match the one they quote.
Have you tried doing their example first?
