The interactions of a spin defect and nearby nitrogen nuclei in hexagonal boron nitride have been studied by electron paramagnetic resonance and double electron-nuclear resonance. The constants of the hyperfine (Aiso=59.5 MHz, Add=13.8 MHz) and quadrupole (Cq=1.96 MHz) interactions for nitrogen nuclei 14N of the first coordination sphere are determined. The results obtained are important for understanding the mechanisms of electron-nuclear interactions in hBN and for developing quantum devices based on spin defects in two-dimensional materials. Keywords: electron paramagnetic resonance, ENDOR spectroscopy, boron vacancy, hBN, spin defect.
