Dec 9 at 16:25 comment added Timothy Chow I would be surprised if this is known. For example, it is known that $\chi(\mathbb{R}^2) \le 7$ and $\chi(\mathbb{R}^3)\ge 6$, but I don't think any better bounds are known. That doesn't quite rule out the possibility that $\chi(\mathbb{R}^2 )< \chi(\mathbb{R}^3)$ could be known, but again, I would be surprised. See On the chromatic numbers of small-dimensional Euclidean spaces for some more info.
