The negatively charged boron vacancy in hexagonal boron nitride is one of the most prominent representatives of an optically active qubit in two-dimensional van der Waals materials. In this case, the electron-nuclear interactions of the boron vacancy with the magnetic moments of the hBN lattice atoms are of particular interest. In this paper, we investigated the nuclear quadrupole interactions of the boron vacancy with the remote nuclear spins of nitrogen 14N (I=1) using the method of electron-nuclear double resonance. Comparative analysis of the obtained parameters of the nuclear quadrupole interaction with the parameters for the nitrogen atoms closest to the vacancy is carried out. Based on the data presented, it is proposed to use the electron spin of the boron vacancy as a spin probe to study the fundamental properties of boron nitride, such as the constants of the nuclear quadrupole interaction. Keywords: electron paramagnetic resonance, ENDOR, boron vacancy, hBN, nuclear quadrupole interaction.
