The masses of neutron-rich ${}^{106-112}\mathrm{Tc}$, ${}^{106-115}\mathrm{Ru}$, ${}^{108-118}\mathrm{Rh}$, and ${}^{112-120}\mathrm{Pd}$ produced in proton-induced fission of uranium were determined using the JYFLTRAP double Penning trap setup. The measured isotopic chains include a number of previously unmeasured nuclei. Typical precisions on the order of 10 keV or better were achieved, representing a factor of 10 improvement over earlier data. In many cases, significant deviations from the earlier measurements were found. The obtained data set of 39 masses is compared with different mass predictions and analyzed for global trends in the nuclear structure.
