It is possible that the magnetic field plays important role in the formation of planetary nebulae(Poscoli, 1992). In order to measure the strength of magnetic field in the envelope of protoplanetary nebulae(PPNe) we have used the Max-Planck-Institut fur Radioastronomie 100-m telescope at Effelsberg to obtain the high frequency resolution and high signal-to-noise ratio 1612 MHz spectra of PPNe, IRAS08005-2356, 18276-1431, and 20406+2953 in both circular polarization. The nature of PPN of these objects are confirmed by Slikhuis et al.(1991), Le Bertre(1987), and Hu et al.(1992) based on the extensive optical, infrared and radio molecular line observations.
