A $^{18}F$-labeled glucose analog, 4-[(2-[$^{18}F$]fluoroethyl)-1-($eta$-D-glucopyranosyl)]-1H-1,2,3-triazole ([$^{18}F$]1), was synthesized using a click labeling method and evaluated in vitro for its cellular transportation via glucose transporter (Glut-1) and its potential as a hexokinase substrate. The click labeling method was superior to conventional labeling method, due to a higher decay-corrected radiochemical yield (30% vs. 21%), higher specific activity ($59.9;GBq/{mu}mol$ vs. $23.5;GBq/{mu}mol$), and shorter synthesis time (75-80 min vs. 95-100 min). In vitro evaluation demonstrated that [$^{18}F$]1 does not act as a hexokinase substrate and has low and non-specific uptake by SNU-C5 cells. These results suggest that click chemistry offers a rapid and efficient radiolabeling method which does not require the protection of functional groups, although a triazole moiety at C1 of [$^{18}F$]1 is incompatible for hexokinase phosphorylation and facilitative diffusion via Glut-1.
