Volatile solvent (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ether

'volatile solvent' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for ether that I've seen before include "It could knock you out" , "Anaesthetic; clear sky (poetic)" , "I'm volatile" , "number" , "Formerly an anaesthetic" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
