Right now Neo4j (as other NoSQL stores) does not play very well in external JTA transaction managers. This is mainly due to the fact that the JTA specification is not clear enough around the rollback functionality for XA resources. For RDBMSes, that missing part of functionality is sitting in the SQLConnection API, which is outside the spec and thus not applicable for Neo4j. Work is going on towards a solution for this, first off with integration into Spring transaction management.
