Sep 13, 2013 at 17:37 comment added Pietro Majer I agree. Note that in both rings the constant $-1$ can be characterized multiplicatively as the only square root $r$ of $1$ such that for any nonzero square $q$ the element $rq$ is not a square. So the argument I wrote below actually shows that $R$ and $S$ have non-isomorphic multiplicative structures.
