We show that measuring the cos2 phi angular dependence in unpolarized Drell-Yan processes with pi(-) beams colliding on proton and deuteron targets can determine the ratio of the Boer-Mulders functions for d and u quarks inside the proton h(1)(perpendicular to,d)/h(1)(perpendicular to,u), which is still lack of theoretical constraint. The comparison of the cos2 phi asymmetries measured in unpolarized pi(-)p and pi D- Drell-Yan processes, which are accessible at CERN by the COMPASS Collaboration, can help to discriminate whether h(1)(perpendicular to) effects or QCD vacuum effects are preferred by data.
