I could tell you, but unless you're a chemist it won't mean much to you (and if you are a chemist, you've probably already got access to books with that information sitting on your shelf). Diagrams will probably be more useful. See the related links.

The reasons the diagrams are necessary is that glucose and fructose have exactly the same chemical formula; the only difference is in how the atoms are arranged. (Glucose is an aldose, fructose is a ketose, and the directions the hydroxyl groups come off the carbon backbone are different too.)
