<s>[INST] What goes wrong in this derivative? $$ f(x) = \frac{2}{3} x (x^2-1)^{-2/3} $$
and f'(x) is searched.
So, by applying the product rule $ (uv)' = u'v + uv' $ with $ u=(x^2-1)^{-2/3} $ and $ v=\frac{2}{3} x $, so $ u'=-\frac{4}{3} x (x^2-1)^{-5/3} $ and $ v' = \frac{2}{3} $, I obtain
$$ f'(x) = - \frac{2}{9} (x^2-1)^{-5/3} x^2 + \frac{2}{3} (x^2-1)^{-2/3} $$ 
whereas according to Wolfram Alpha (see alternate form), the correct result is:
$$ f'(x) = - \frac{2}{9} (x^2-1)^{-5/3} x^2 - \frac{2}{3} (x^2-1)^{-5/3} $$
So apparently, my calculation for $u'v$ is correct, but $uv'$ is wrong. What am I missing here?
 [/INST] You're so close, but you have simply multiplied incorrectly.
Note that if $u' = -\frac{4}{3}x(x^2 - 1)^{-5/3}$ and $v = \frac{2}{3}x$, then $$u'v = -\frac{8}{9}x^2(x^2-1)^{-5/3}$$
This will make your answer correct.  To match W|A, you just need to combine fractions carefully.
