Beverage alcohol is, but it's not a "scheduled" controlled substance like pot, heroin, cocaine or amphetamines. It's legal to buy it only if you meet the age requirement, which is 21.
Ethyl alcohol used as a solvent (and mixed with something to make it undrinkable so it doesn't have to be taxed as beverage alcohol; this is called Denatured Alcohol in the US or Methylated Spirits in the UK) is a Volatile Organic Compound and there are lots more laws governing its sale.
