The reactions 89y(~, 4n7), 89y(c~, p4nT) and 89y(~, 5ny) were used to populate high-spin states in, respectively, 89Nb, 8SZr and the previously unstudied nucleus SSNb. These states were deduced via in-beam gamma-ray spectroscopy. The results of a shell-model study of N=48 SSZr, 9~STy, 89Nb and N=47 87Zr, SSNb nuclei are compared to experiment.
