Abstract Based on the panel data of the central cities along the Yangtze River from 2006 to 2018, and on the basis of comprehensively measuring the level of technological innovation, the rationalization and upgrading of industrial structure, this paper focuses on the direct impact and specific path of technological innovation on the upgrading of industrial structure. And the threshold model is also used to analyze the impact of environmental regulation on the upgrading of industrial structure of technological innovation. The results show that technological innovation can effectively promote the rational development of industrial results, and there is a U-shaped curve relation with the advanced industrial structure. In different thresholds of technological innovation and environmental regulation, the effect of technological innovation on industrial structure upgrading is gradually changed from inhibition to promotion. And the Weaker environmental regulation intensity for technology import, the imitation innovation provides the possibility to help promote the rationalization of industrial structure effect of technology innovation. However, to realize the development of industrial structure, it is necessary to moderately improve the environmental standards, and at the same time to urge enterprises to strengthen independent innovation so as to enhance industrial competitiveness and break the constraints of resources and environment faced by industrial transformation and upgrading.
