Comparing the theoretically predicted and measured values of the mass difference of the B{sub s}{sup 0} system, we estimate the lower bound on the mass of the Z{sup '} boson of models based on the SU(3){sub c} x SU(3){sub L} x U(1){sub X} gauge group. By assuming zero-texture approaches of the quark mass matrices, we find the ratio of the measured value to the theoretical prediction from the standard model and the Z{sup '} contribution from the 331 models of the mass difference of the B{sub s}{sup 0} system. We find lower bounds on the Z{sup '} mass ranging between 1 TeV and 30 TeV for the two most popular 331 models, and four different zero-textures ansaetze. The above results are expressed as a function of the weak angle associated to the b-s-Z{sup '} couplings.
