Level schemes of 4899Cd51 and 49101In52 nuclei have been extended to high spin. The breakup of the doubly magic 100Sn core has been observed. Large-scale shell model calculations based on realistic nucleon-nucleon interactions are in good agreement with the experimental data. These results provide a reliable basis to predict nuclear structure properties in 100Sn and its neighbors. For example, the size of the N=50 shell gap and the energy of the first excited state in 101Sn have been deduced.
