FWIW here's what I use:

(defun run-emacs (command)
   "Run the Emacs COMMAND in the background via `shell-command'."
   (interactive
    (let ((program (expand-file-name invocation-name invocation-directory)))
      (list (read-string "Emacs command: "
			(cons (concat program
				      (if (cdr command-line-args)
					  (mapconcat 'identity
						     (cdr command-line-args)
						     " ")
					" -Q")
				      " &")
			      (1+ (length program)))))))
   (shell-command command))
