I'm not completely sure what you are trying to do, but if I understand
you correctly, why not simply get the numerators and denominators of the
coefficients?
coeffs = CoefficientList[equ, x]
Numerator[coeffs]
Denominator[coeffs]
You can delete duplicates if desired.
DeleteDuplicates[Numerator[coeffs]]
DeleteDuplicates[Denominator[coeffs]]
