You could use this command:

xdotool windowminimize $(xdotool getactivewindow)

You can change xdotool getactivewindow with a specific window that you would like to minimize.

xdotool wouldn't be installed on Ubuntu by default.So run the below command to install xdotool package.

sudo apt-get install xdotool
