Could you describe deeper your idea?

Do you want a new menuitem in ArcMAP?
Or do you want to create a standalone ArcEngine application?

This should work

        File newFile = new File("myNewFile.mxd");
        MapDocument mapDocument = new MapDocument();
        mapDocument.esri_new(newFile );
/* if you will save some content in it, just comment below out
        mapDocument.replaceContents(map);
        mapDocument.setActiveView(map);   or        mapDocument.setActiveView(pageLayout);
*/
        mapDocument.save(false, false);
        mapDocument.close();
