Well it sounds to me you want to find a way to differentiate the structures of these two compounds. A logical and very helpful method in differentiating these compounds would be using spectroscopy, which is the interaction of radiation with matter. Specifically, HNMR spectroscopy (or proton NMR spectroscopy) would be a very helpful method. Proton NMR can help you determine the exact structure of a molecule, as it tells how many hydrogen atoms are on adjacent carbon atoms. It would be a little complicated and tedious to analyze the result, but I feel it would solve your question here.
