The
University of Ottawa established the "Keith Fagnou Scholarship in Science" in his memory. The members of his research group also organized a symposium (KFOS) in his honour which was held May 5ā7, 2010. The Pacifichem chemistry conference also held a memorial symposium titled "C-H

Factory". His contributions in the field were rewarded with numerous awards and have been included in reviews published on the subject.
123:. His research focused on developing new reactions that avoid unnecessary activation of substrates and that can instead directly functionalize CāH bonds of simple molecules and introduce CāC bonds.
