A search was made for 18 cm OH emission from five planetary nebulae which have small angular sizes. No OH emission was detected from the sources in the sample which included IC 4997, previously considered as a provisional OH emitter. Upper limits to the 1667 and 1612 MHz line radiation of IC 4997 were obtained. In spite of no detections of the OH-lines, the continuum VLA map in the 1667 MHz band shows an elongated structure of IC 4997 which has never been previously resolved. Highly resolved emission-line profiles of the samples may give a clue to distinguish intrinsically compact PNe from apparently stellar planetaries. The profiles of M 1-5, M 3-27, IC 4997, and Vy 2-2 reveal that they are true compact PNe.
