No, “Wundbenzin” which is clean “Benzin” which is “Petrol Ether”.
Its really confusing, in german we say “Benzin” to a mix of alkanes that are between Kerosine (really light) and “Petroleum” (pretty heavy, used in lamps) afaik.
In the US “Benzin” would be “gasoline” or “petrol” which is already so weird. And as that name for alkanes of medium long length is not reused, stuff like “spirit” or “ether” come along which are as far as I know both wrong (not an alcohol or an ether)

In the US, surgical spirit is isopropyl alcohol.
