Hi Pedro. The export works as expected *without* loading auctex. It also works as expected *with* loading auctex, but with TeX-parse-self to nil. Perhaps the best solution is to amend org-latex-export-as-latex to set TeX-parse-self to nil before calling LaTeX-mode, e.g., with (let ((TeX-parse-self nil)) <rest of the org-latex-export-as-latex code here>). To be honest, I'm not sure if this is a bug of org or reftex-auc. What do you think?
