Direct mass measurements of nuclides near to the supposed end-point region of the astrophysical rp-process were performed at SHIPTRAP, the Penning trap mass spectrometer at GSI Darmstadt. The masses of 24 nuclides were measured with relative uncertainties between 5 . 10-8 and 2 . 10-7 . Three of them, 107Sb , 111I and 112I , were determined experimentally for the first time. The data analysis and mass evaluation are presented in detail.
