Abstract
We prove that the first Chern class of a codimension two closed contact submanifold of the odd dimensional Euclidean space is trivial. For any closed co-oriented contact 3-manifold with trivial Chern class, we prove that there is a contact structure on the 5-dimensional Euclidean space which admits a contact embedding of it.
