The intra and inter molecular forces will help to determine the higher boiling.

Intra molecular forces are Polar/Non-polar covalent bonds and ionic bonds. Covalent bonds are stronger than ionic bonds.

Polar covalent bonds will have a higher boiling point because non-polar covalent bonds are only affected by London forces.

Intermolecular forces are hydrogen bonding, diapole-diapole and London. All molecules have London forces.

Also the higher the electro-negativity the higher the boiling point.

If all of the intra and inter molecular forces are the same, refer to the electro-negativity and size. The greater the electro-negativity and size, the higher the boiling point.
