Really there is no 'structure' as such between the small and large intestine. The small intestine is in three parts (that are not separated/divided), the first 20cm or so is the duodenum, the next roughly 2.5m is the jejunum with the remaining roughly 3.5m the ileum which then turns into cecum (the first part of the large intestine). Imagine the intestines as piping with each part being another pipe welded to the last - there are different sections but ultimately they form one long tube.
